As part of our improvements in the REACH student tracking and our approach to emergency management you now have the opportunity to set default geo-locations for all of the locations that you create in REACH.
When geo-locations are set for your locations REACH is able to then provide location mapping for your student population based on their current location in your REACH Kiosk view.
Access to the geo-profile of your students is part of the Student Locator Dashboard (Dashboards > Student Locator). IN this dashboard you can switch between a list view and the geo-map view of your defined student population.
How to set the geo-profile for your locations
When creating locations in your System Configuration there is a new field that can be entered called geo-map
This field is linked to Google Maps and allows you to search and set the geo-details of the location that you are creating. Setting your location details is simply a matter of identifying where you location is on the map provided an saving these details as part of your Location profile.
Once set, REACH will identify students in the geo location when they are signed out to the location in your REACH portal.
