The live patrol view
What every layer of the map means: heatmap, residents, fellow guards, active incidents.
The map on your patrol tab is your operating picture. Here's what every layer is and how to use it.
Guard Patrol Map
Guard patrol map view with multiple layers active
Your own GPS
Your patrol vehicle's dot is yellow with a directional indicator showing which way you're facing. Tap it for your speed, accuracy, and the time since your last position update.
Other on-duty guards in adjacent zones
Greyed-out vehicle icons. Useful when you're near a zone boundary and need to coordinate or transfer.
Active incidents
Red diamond markers, with a number badge if multiple incidents are stacked at the same point. Tap to expand to the incident detail panel: who reported it, when, what category, photo if any. From there you can call the resident or mark the incident as you've reviewed it.
The heatmap
Toggle the heatmap layer to overlay the predictive forecast on the map. Useful at the start of a shift to identify which corners might want extra attention tonight.
Resident dots (optional)
By default residents are NOT shown on the patrol map for privacy. You can enable a "show residents who opted in" layer in patrol settings; residents who've explicitly granted patrol-map visibility will appear as small dots. Default is off; this is opt-in.
Camera feeds inset
If your zone has community cameras, a small camera-grid inset appears in the bottom right. Tap to expand to the multi-camera view. You can pin one feed to the inset while keeping the map full-screen.
