The "Show Actual Path" feature provides critical insights into real-world route performance by displaying the exact GPS trail of driver movements compared to planned routes.
When activated, this feature overlays a dotted line trail on your map showing the precise path your driver traveled. This visual comparison between planned routes (solid colored lines) and actual movement (dotted trail) reveals valuable operational intelligence about route adherence, efficiency, and real-world navigation challenges.
How does the actual path look like?
The actual path appears as a continuous dotted line that follows your driver's GPS coordinates from route start to current position. For completed routes, you'll see the entire journey from depot departure to return. This historical GPS data creates a permanent record of actual delivery patterns versus planned optimization.
