This update expands fleet analysis with stop-count statistics, adds commands for compatible trackers directly from the map, and introduces support for devices using the GB100 protocol. It also improves mapping configuration, retains the selected device group, and corrects the display of custom icons.
Stop-count statistics by device
Secure GPS statistics turn GPS locations into indicators that can be compared by device and period. The new stop-count statistic calculates how many times each tracker stopped within the selected range and presents the result as detailed rows, a summary, and a chart.
This information supports operations where stop frequency matters, including delivery routes, service visits, passenger transport, or supervision rounds. A fleet manager can compare two vehicles over the same period and identify which one made more stops before opening route history to understand the reason.
A stop count is an operational indicator, not an automatic explanation of each stop. It should be reviewed together with locations, schedules, and route conditions before decisions are made.
GPS tracker commands from the map
Users with the appropriate permission can review commands available for a device and send them from the map view. Depending on tracker compatibility and account configuration, the command can use a channel supported by the device.
Administrators can also enter a compatible custom command. This helps installation and support workflows because a technician can verify the location, select the tracker, and perform the action from the same context.
Responsible command use
A command can change tracker behavior. Before sending one, operators should confirm the device, protocol, and instruction specified by the manufacturer. Secure GPS exposes the feature only to authorized users, but the final response depends on connectivity and device support.
The map remembers the selected device group
Secure GPS can organize trackers into groups and filter them on the map. The selected group is now retained for the next request as long as the user still has access to it.
This reduces repetitive steps for coordinators who regularly work with one region, customer, or vehicle category. When they return to the map, they can continue with the relevant set instead of rebuilding the filter.
GB100 protocol compatibility
Support for the GB100 protocol was added, allowing compatible devices to transmit locations and supported data to Secure GPS. For integrators, this expands the hardware options that can connect to the tracking service.
After registering a device, its identifier, time, coordinates, and events should be validated with a controlled test. Available capabilities depend on the model and the messages it actually sends.
Custom Google Maps configuration
Accounts that manage their own mapping configuration can register a compatible Google Maps credential. This allows the map source to be used in Secure GPS under the configuration defined by the organization.
Administrators are responsible for keeping the credential active and reviewing its terms of use. This feature does not change data sent by trackers; it changes the source used to display locations, routes, and geofences.
Custom icons visible in map details
The display of custom icons in the map details view was corrected. Organizations that use symbols to distinguish vehicles, assets, or categories can recognize each device consistently in both the marker and its related information.
Technical summary for administrators and integrators
- Stop statistics calculate the count difference within the selected period and provide detail, per-device summaries, and a time-based chart.
- Authorized users can send compatible commands from the map; administrators can enter a custom instruction.
- The map retains the selected group when it remains available to the user.
- Compatibility with the GB100 protocol was added.
- Configuration supports a customer-managed compatible Google Maps credential.
- Custom icon display in the details view was corrected.
Existing devices require no changes. To use GB100 or send commands, integrators should verify the protocol, model capabilities, and account permissions before testing.
Analyze operations and take action from one map
Secure GPS combines GPS tracking, statistics, groups, commands, and route history so businesses can move from observation to action with fewer steps. Stop statistics reveal patterns, while commands and filters support work on specific devices.
