Route replay

What it’s for — route replay is how the office reviews everywhere a trailer actually went on a job: the driven line, stops, and any deviations from the approved route, shown on a map.

When you’d use it — checking a trip after the fact, watching one live as it happens, or reviewing the whole journey a trailer made across a job.

The Route tab — the driven route in magenta, the approved corridor dashed blue, and every stop (including a logged “Tea break”).

Complete route vs. a single trip

The job’s Route tab lists every trip recorded on it. By default it shows Complete route — every trip on the job merged into one journey, with:

  • the full driven line,
  • a green Start marker and a blue End marker,
  • red stop markers, each with its break reason (if the driver logged one) in a popup,
  • the map fit to the whole route.

Click an individual trip card to see that trip on its own instead, along with its compliance panels: Deviations, Stops (≥5 min), and Movement window.

What’s below the map

Under the map you’ll find:

  • distance driven,
  • points shown — with a note if any spurious GPS points were hidden from the line,
  • stop count, and
  • a stop log: each stop’s time, duration, and reason (or “unlabelled” if the driver didn’t log one).

Watching a trip live

While a trip is in progress, the map updates roughly every 30 seconds. The trailer’s live position and route line also appear on the fleet Map page, alongside everything else that’s moving.

Older trips

Finished trips are kept — nothing is deleted. Older trips move to long-term storage transparently in the background; replay works exactly the same whether a trip happened yesterday or months ago.

Common questions

  • Why does Complete route look different from a single trip card? Complete route merges every trip on the job into one line; a single trip card isolates just that trip’s driven line, stops, and compliance panels.
  • Can I see a deviation’s exact distance off route? Yes — each deviation in the list shows its time, duration, and maximum distance off the approved corridor.
  • Does an old trip ever stop being viewable? No — older trips move to cheaper storage in the background, but replay still works the same way.
