The depot name for ease of identification. If a depot's name is not defined, it's identified by its address.

Address*

The exact address of the depot. The address is used to calculate coordinates for route starting points.

Time zone

The time zone where the depot is located. Set in "Area/Location" format. For example, Asia/Kamchatka. Please note that Etc/GMT+3 is not the same as GMT+3. The GMT+3 value corresponds to Etc/GMT-3.

Default value: Europe/Moscow.

Detection radius, m
