Filter Map Data

Filter Map Data

You can filter mapped data by date range and many other factors to help you visualize the project state you want to see. The date range filter is always applied to the displayed data. Applying an additional filter further refines the displayed data.

  1. Click the Global Filters icon.

  2. Select the filters from the filter category drop-down lists.

  3. Click OK to apply the filters. The number next to the Global Filters icon indicates how many filters are applied.

For example, to understand what a particular machine did on a specific day in a specific project area:

  1. Filter to the day using a date filter such as Today, Yesterday, or a Custom day. Date Range is a required filter.

  2. Apply a Machine filter to select the specific machine whose work that day you want to view.

  3. To display work done in only one area, use the Custom Area filter by clicking the Draw icon on the map and drawing the area of interest.

This will adjust the displayed data for just that custom area. All of the metrics will adjust based on the applied filters.

Filters You can Apply

You can apply as many of these filters to a data set as you need. Favorite filters can be reused in reports or elevation surveys. You can also find them within volume and Work Remaining calculations.

Date Range

Refine your project data (including surveyed surfaces) to a set period in time, including Today, Yesterday, Current Week, Previous Week, Custom, or the default value: Project Extents. A Date Range filter must always be applied to your project. Using the Custom date range filter, you can also specify the hours and minutes.

Note: Project Extents does not use the project start and end dates. Instead, it sets the date range from the first-day project data was received to the date of the most recently received project data, which lets you see all project data at once. The Custom date range lets you set a range of dates and times within the Project Extents.

Note: The project boundary dictates the time zone in which the machines report. This is the time zone set when creating a new project in WorksOS Administrator. Keep this in mind when you look at a project’s data reported in a time zone different from your preferred time zone; this could impact your date range selections.

Saved Filters

This option shows and lets you quickly reuse your saved filters.

Configure Saved Filters

To save time, you can save a combination of filters as a Saved filter. This allows you to use your filter combination without having to rebuild it each time.

Note: Although the Date Range is set in a separate window, it will be included in the Saved filter.

  1. On the Map page, click the Global Filters icon.

  2. Select the filters you want.

  3. When you have configured a commonly used filter, click the Save Filter button to save it to your favorites.

  4. Save it with a unique name, and click OK.

Note: The Saved filter is available only to the Saved filter creator. Favorite filters are not shared with other users working on the project in this account.

Edit a Saved Filter

  1. Select the filter in the Saved Filters list.

  2. Select the filter criteria you want to add and delete the criteria you do not want.

  3. To overwrite the filter, click Save Filter.

  4. To save the filter as a new filter with a different name, click the Save Filter button, enter the new name, and click Save.

Delete a Saved filter

  1. Go to the filter in the Saved Filters list, you will see an X icon. Click it and select Delete to delete the Saved Filter
