Automatic load statuses from geofences: 3,200 m zones, arrival and departure times

PingPoint draws a 3,200 m geofence around every stop and moves the load status from the driver's GPS: PLANNED → AT_PICKUP → IN_TRANSIT → AT_DELIVERY → DELIVERED. Statuses cannot be written by hand, so a status is backed by a recorded position.

The rules

Default radius 3,200 m around each stop.
Positions with accuracy worse than 150 m are kept in the track but ignored for geofencing.
Arrival fires at once when accuracy is 50 m or better, otherwise after two consecutive positions inside the zone.
Departure needs the truck past the radius plus hysteresis (the larger of 100 m and a third of the radius) and at least 60 seconds after arrival.
Only the first and last stops move the status: leaving the first stop sets IN_TRANSIT, arriving at the last sets AT_DELIVERY, leaving it sets DELIVERED.
Middle stops record their own arrival and departure times without changing the status.
On-time, delay and dwell are measured on the last delivery and the last pickup.

Status changes are also sent to your webhook as pingpoint.status.changed.

How PingPoint connects. You sign up with email, Google or GitHub and start with a $10 credit. The driver gets a text message with a link and installs the free PingPoint Driver app (iPhone, Android) — no driver account. The carrier and the dispatcher don't need to set anything up.
