This opens the live map in another window. You can keep this map window open as you work through other areas of Encompass if desired.

Search for a specific driver/vehicle in the list.
Map Date
View mapping data for a specified date.
Drivers/Vehicles Tabs
The drivers listed under the Drivers tab are utilizing ELDs with the Encompass® ELD application. If utilizing vehicle tracking, the list of tracked vehicles will be under the Vehicles tab. (See Vehicle Tracking for more guidance around vehicle tracking setup, etc.)
Note: Drivers/Vehicles cannot be added to this list directly.
Click on the driver name/unit code to zoom into the ELD/tracking device location. Click the vehicle indicator on the map to open additional details.
Click the clock icon next to a driver/vehicle to view its history.
Q: What if there are drivers missing from this list?
A: Since the drivers are populated from the Encompass® ELD application utilizing an ELD, the driver needs to be connected to the ELD, which provides the GPS information. Additionally, the driver must have internet/network connection for that information to be transmitted from the ELD application to Encompass.
Q: Why are the times "in the future"?
A: The time is based off of what Time Zone your company is set to. If it seems like the time is "in the future", you may need to confirm your company's Time Zone. This can be viewed/edited by going to Settings > Company Level Listing. Click Edit Rules and scroll to the Time Zone section.
