About

Geo Blocks

Features
Read full description

Geo Blocks gives you a powerful way to track and visualize location updates in real time. Create blocks, update them through the API, and watch them move live on the map. Switch between three modes to fit your needs: Block View – see only the block’s current position. Route View – follow the block’s route history alongside its location. Chain View – explore every past update, including routes and points. Easily cycle through blocks with the top buttons, tap blocks or points to see timestamps, and choose between dark/light themes with regular or satellite maps. Customize your experience with 12 block colors and view detailed routes as a list of locations. The built-in API tools make integration simple. Instantly check credits, copy your personal auth token, regenerate it anytime, and access the update endpoint. Full online docs include authentication details, endpoint structure, and code examples in JavaScript, Python, and cURL. With Geo Blocks, managing and visualizing live location updates has never been easier.
