The Map module in FacilityApps provides a visual overview of your sites, users, and elements/assets, with color-coding to represent their status. This allows for quick identification and action based on the visual data presented.

User Locations
- Real-Time Tracking - View the real-time locations of users who have the FacilityApps mobile app installed and location sharing enabled.
- Status Updates - Colors reflect user availability or activity status.
Elements & Assets
- Asset Tracking - Visualize the locations of elements and assets linked to your sites.
- Status Monitoring - Quickly identify the operational status of assets through color-coded markers.
