3. Whether or not to show visual indicators on your map which correspond to any alert information triggered by your GPS device.
4. The SentryGPS webportal allows you to any geaofences you have created for your device directly on the GPS tracking map.
5. You also are provided the option of showing connecting lines between points of data (if you have selected more than 1 point of data).  This can be useful in helping o establish a travel pattern for your GPS device.
