Self Tracking

The asset interface can be used to record the position information for the asset.

This can be enabled by clicking the ‘Enable' button. If this is working the current position of the device will be displayed and this will be sent to the server as the assets position.

This mechanism is intended to be used as a backup for assets that don't have another mechanism for sending their position to Search Management Map.

All of the possible status values are selectable in the drop-down and notes about the reason for the status change can be supplied in the notes box.

This status is general about the asset and applies to the asset overall, some statuses will make it impossible to add the asset to a new mission.
