What is the marker accuracy?

Map View will offer an indicator of location accuracy with a ring surrounding the pin. The ring will increase in size as the GPS coordinates become more uncertain.

Tapping on the marker will bring up a bubble with the device’s personalization. When the Team overlay is open, team name, number of firefighters, active alarms/warnings/notification, G1 SCBA air pressure status, and devices specific to the firefighter are visible.
