Managing Stops

Stops are specific locations where vehicles pick up or drop off passengers. Each stop has a geofence radius that determines when NexaBus considers a vehicle to have "arrived" at that stop.

Viewing Stops

The Stops table displays:

• ID: Unique identifier
• Name: Stop name
• Address: Physical address of the stop
• Latitude: GPS latitude coordinate
• Longitude: GPS longitude coordinate
• Radius (m): Geofence radius in meters
• Sync Status: Connection status (Pending, Synced, Failed)

Searching for Stops

Use the search field to find stops by name or address. Type your search term and press Enter.

Customizing Columns

1. Click the Columns button above the table.
2. Check or uncheck columns to show or hide them.

Adding a Stop

1. Click the Add Stop button.
2. Fill in the stop details:
   • Name (Required): A descriptive name for the stop (e.g., "Main Street Station")
   • Radius (Required): The geofence radius in meters. When a vehicle enters this radius, it's considered to have arrived at the stop.
   • Location: Click on the interactive map to set the stop's location. This automatically fills in:
     • Address
     • Latitude
     • Longitude
   • Description (Optional): Additional information about the stop
3. Click Create Stop.

Setting the Location

The map makes it easy to place stops accurately:

1. Pan and zoom the map to find the location.
2. Click/tap on the exact spot where passengers should be picked up.
3. A marker appears and the address/coordinates fill in automatically.
4. Adjust the radius based on how precise arrival detection needs to be.

Tip: Use a smaller radius (e.g., 25-50 meters) for precise locations like building entrances. Use a larger radius (e.g., 100-200 meters) for general areas like neighborhoods.

Editing a Stop

1. Find the stop in the table.
2. Click the actions menu (three dots) in that row.
3. Select Edit.
4. Update the name, radius, location, or description.
5. Click Update Stop.

Deleting a Stop

1. Find the stop in the table.
2. Click the actions menu (three dots) in that row.
3. Select Delete.
4. Confirm the deletion.

Warning: Deleting a stop removes it from all routes and passenger assignments that use it.

Understanding Sync Status

Stops sync with the NexaBus tracking server:

• Pending: Currently syncing
• Synced: Successfully synchronized
• Failed: Sync failed - click to retry

Pagination

When you have many stops, use the pagination controls at the bottom of the table to navigate between pages.
