Issue details

• Devices display at incorrect location on the overview map

Troubleshooting steps

The device's location on the overview page map view is gathered from the $.host.geoip stream by default. This stream is powered by a reverse IP lookup, which may be inaccurate.

If you have a more accurate location stream (such as a GPS sensor), you can provide that stream's location data to the overview page and override the default $.host.geoip stream. To do so:

1. Disable Persist last known value for that device's $.host.geoip stream.
2. Navigate to a stream with a data type of location which contains the accurate location data for your device.
3. Enable Persist last known value for that stream.
