collector's last location

Question

I am using op dashboard with collector mobile app.  I need the op dashboard to show the collector's last location.  I created a tracking layer in the webmap, and dashboard shows collector's locations he's been (a track).  Is there a way just show the last location?

Thanks

That's a very reasonable suggestion and we would like to add support for that in future releases.

Until then, this could be solved programmatically client side with a custom widget.

I was just working on this. I think this is why ESRI sells tracker analysis. HOWEVER, There is a work around for those  that don't have it.  Work around #1. I created a list widget, sorted descending on OBJECT ID, limited the list to one entry. Then on the widget configuration I included zoom, highlight, and directions too. Work around two I haven't actually done yet, but I would do about the same thing only with a filter. Hope this helps, I know it doesn't get rid of all the map clutter but at least one can find where their last location is.  Another item under the configuration settings that I haven't played with yet is there is a "Follow" feature, I'm interested in how that will work.

Could you post a link to this demo?  If I am correct, they are using the GeoEvent Processor along with ArcGIS Server.
