Radar

A location-aware amenity finder for life on the road. One view of the things that actually matter — fuel, toilets, parking, vet, pub — wherever you are.

Sensa Radar replaces the endless “nearest X to me” searches that come with life on the road. Our goal was to include this as part of our navigation module inside our Nomad product. Nomad uses the GPS feature on your Teltonika router to power the navigation. However not everyone has a Teltonika router and we thought it may be useful as a standalone app for web and mobile.

The system is currently in beta, so the Pro tier isn’t yet available and we have no Service LEvel Agreement, but we are keen to receive feedback from the community on future features. Give it a try at radarbeta.sensa.systems.

Pick the categories you care about — fuel, LPG, toilets, supermarkets, pubs, vets, campsites, aires, drinking water — and Radar shows them on a map and a list, sorted by distance, on whichever device is to hand.

What it does

  • Nearest view. One result per category, grouped and reorderable. Star the ones that matter to pin them to the top.
  • Drill down. Tap any category to see every result in your radius, filterable by data source.
  • Vehicle-aware hazards. Low bridges, weight limits, narrow lanes and active flood warnings rendered as their own map layers. Set your vehicle profile once; Radar only flags the hazards that actually block you.
  • Upcoming hazards. When you’re moving, Radar watches a cone ahead of you and warns you about restrictions in your path before you reach them.
  • Vehicle-aware routing. Plan a route that already avoids the hazards your van can’t clear — no separate truck-routing subscription required.
  • Curated UK data. Toilets, fuel prices, EV chargers, ATMs, NHS pharmacies and dentists, MOT centres, libraries, bathing waters, parks and more come from authoritative open sources, not scraped from a single map provider.

Home Assistant integration

The HA custom component installs a Radar panel (the web app embedded as an iframe, using your HA device tracker for location) plus sensor entities like sensor.nearest_lpg_station. That means you can build automations such as “notify me when within 5 miles of an LPG station” or auto-display nearby services when you arrive somewhere new.

Accounts and privacy

Accounts are optional. Without one, your preferences live in your browser. With one, they sync across web, mobile and HA. Coordinates aren’t stored permanently — only your last-used location, in-session, for refresh. Sensa Radar accounts are separate from Sensa Control accounts.
