Radar

The radar functionality can be used to notify the user if a vehicle becomes available in their area.

To create a Radar, the user decides on a position, a radius, and a start time from when they want to be notified.

The backend checks periodically if a vehicle is available for a radar, if a vehicle is found, the user is notified.

Configuration

The operator can define general information, like

  • duration how long a radar is active
  • maximum radius of a radar

The frequency of how often to check for available vehicles and when a radar expires can be adjusted.

 

The message which is sent to the user can be configured under:

  • Notification channels
  • Translation keys : Radar.info, Radar.radius,Radar.activeRadar or any other translation key with the suffix Radar.

Limitation

The radar functionality can not be combined in any way with the booking feature. This is a known limitation of goUrban.

Kindly reach out to your account manager for further details and activation.
