# Live Tracking

Live Tracking with Requests will allow you to monitor your Trucks as they progress on their assigned Dispatch.<br>

<figure><img src="/files/qZicRARzmHZF5qB22dIJ" alt=""><figcaption><p>This image is an example showing a few trucks on active dispatches, as well as two that have been completed and are returning to a location to pick up another.</p></figcaption></figure>

In the *Live Tracking* menu, you can view your active haulers as they progress and complete their dispatches. This page will display their current location, as well as what route they've taken to their destination and when they started and stopped their haul.

{% hint style="danger" %}
This *Live Tracking* menu is provided by a third-party GPS system. The accuracy of local road and weather conditions is not guaranteed and should be independently verified when necessary.
{% endhint %}

### Overlays

<figure><img src="/files/bq5cQzpBndMhu8HoUWZn" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Within the headers at the top of the page are a few optional overlays. These allow for more active dispatchers to view real time conditions, such as Traffic and Weather. &#x20;

#### Traffic

<figure><img src="/files/zmub5eOCNctkmK7kS6Do" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

The Traffic overlay will display various issues affecting the roadways that your trucks and haulers may use when dispatched. Clicking on an icon will provide the reported issue, such as roadwork or traffic delays and accidents. This can be beneficial for providing updates on a delivery to your customers, or helping the driver navigate through these delays with alternate routes, if available.

#### Weather

The Weather overlay can help to provide a view of any expected or unexpected weather in the delivery area, or route that your drivers may need to take as they complete their dispatch.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.tacinsight.com/fast-weigh-knowledge-base/references/web-portal/dispatch/live-tracking.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
