Assess local coverage from Slack planning
Turn a proposed service limit into an area the team can inspect before committing.
Trigger
Channel Message Received
Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.
Action
Generate isoline (isochrone/isodistance)
Tool to generate isochrone or isodistance isolines. Use when visualizing reachable areas from a point; use `id` to poll ongoing calculations.
Why this helps
Service-area discussions often rely on rough intuition, leaving coverage questions unresolved.
- Translate a proposed travel limit into a reachable boundary.
- Give the team a concrete area for discussion.
- Keep geographic planning tied to the decision thread.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Geoapify to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally to assess service coverage from Slack plans.
- 3Use a single plain-language instruction to extract a service origin and time or distance limit, generate a Geoapify isoline, and return the result for discussion.
- 4Choose Slack Channel Message Received and select a run-report channel.
- 5Test with a proposed service location and one clear limit.
Questions about this workflow
Does an isoline confirm actual customer coverage?
It shows an area reachable according to the requested travel-time or distance calculation; the team should use it as planning input.
Can this compare service areas?
It can generate an area for a defined origin and limit. Comparing candidates may require separate isoline requests.

IP Geolocation
Tool to determine geographic location of an IP address. Use when you need to lookup location information by IP.
Message Reaction Removed
Triggered when a reaction is removed from a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.
Generate isoline (isochrone/isodistance)
Tool to generate isochrone or isodistance isolines. Use when visualizing reachable areas from a point; use `id` to poll ongoing calculations.
Reaction Added Trigger
DEPRECATED: use `SLACK_MESSAGE_REACTION_ADDED` instead. Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack.
Map Matching
Tool to snap GPS traces to the road network and correct inaccuracies. Use when raw GPS points need alignment to roads.
