kit_id
string
required
UUID of the kit.
asset_id
string
required
UUID of the asset (returned by Create Asset).

Body

lat
number
required
Latitude in decimal degrees (WGS-84).
lon
number
required
Longitude in decimal degrees (WGS-84).
alt_m
number
Altitude in meters above WGS-84 ellipsoid.
bearing
number
Heading in degrees true north (0–360). Displayed as the asset’s orientation arrow on the map.
speed_mps
number
Ground speed in meters per second.

Response

Returns 204 No Content on success. The fix is:
  • Stored as a gps feed message (visible via Get Asset Telemetry and the Asset WebSocket)
  • Written to the asset’s lat/lon/alt_m columns for quick map queries
  • Broadcast to any active WebSocket subscribers immediately
Push at whatever rate your system produces fixes. 1 Hz is typical for drones; lower rates are fine for vehicles.
