Creating Sharable Zones
Sharable Zones
Zones can be created at the entity level and shared across all associated sub-entities. This is particularly useful for locations that are relevant to multiple enrollees, as it eliminates the need to recreate zones individually. Commonly visited places such as hospitals, parks, schools, or other frequently accessed areas can have zones defined once and shared with sub-entities and their users. These zones can be both inclusion and exclusion zones.
Creating Sharable Zones
From the entity's profile follow the steps below:
- Select "Zones" from the top tabs menu
- Select "Shared Zones"
- Select "+Polygon", "+State/County" or "+Circle"
- "+Polygon" allows for the creation of customized shapes by dragging the points of each corner and outer wall to create the desired shape and size
- "+State/County" allows for the perimeter of an entire county or state to be used as a zone. Counties can be added by request through Shadowtrack if not already configured
- "+Circle" allows for every point of the circumference to have equal distance from the center
- After selecting the desired zone type, you will be taken to a page to enter the zone details
- "Zone Name"- when sharing zones for multiple users, you will want to give the zone an easy to identify name (Ex) Central Park, Mount Sinai Hospital, etc
- "Sharable With SubEntities"- select "Yes" to allow your sub-entities and their users to see these zones
- "Exclusion"- when "Yes" is selected, this configures the zone as a prohibited area, meaning that the enrollee is not allowed to enter. Selecting "No" will make the zone and Inclusion zone, meaning that the enrollee should not exit this zone. Inclusion zones also require a schedule to be associated to ensure location accuracy during any curfew periods
- "Home"- by selecting "Yes" the system will calculate the time spent within this zone and configure a report. This is typically used for home incarceration enrollees, and is only applicable to hardware enrollees.
- "Street, Unit, City, State, Zip Code and Country"-Fill in all applicable fields associated to the zone you are creating
- "Find Location"- after inputting all above information, select "Find Location" to configure the zone on the map. You can move the zone around and expand or retract the size if needed. (Not applicable for State/County zones)
- Once the zone has been configured and all information is correct, select "Save"
When creating Shared Zones in the entity, the option for "Default" is not available.
