Managing Public Maps

Public maps allow the current location and track of a group of devices to be made available in the form of an embeddable map (or link to a map) that do not require a login.

It is possible to configure a public map to show position report histories based on the following criteria:

• Last X Messages (shows a certain number of messages)
• Last X Days (shows messages from a certain number of days ago)
• From Date (from a specific date)
• Between Two Dates
