Geofencing and Alerts

Geo-fencing Alerts
Geofencing is a term that is increasingly getting
popular in the Location Based Services arena and
so we decided to break it up for you!
  • What is a Geo-fence
  • Geo-fence, also known as geozone, is a
    virtual perimeter to predefined area of interest
    that is marked on a map. This can be your
    warehouse, construction site, or even your
    popular customer location. The virtual boundary
    is then used to trigger events based on schedule,
    detection of a device within the boundary etc.
  • Application of Geo-fencing
  • Whenever a worker is in a geofenced area, set off
    automatic alerts to dispatcher, manager or
    interested customers
  • Optimize payroll calcuations by seting up
    automatic checkin/checkout events when a worker
    enters or leaves a geofenced job site.
  • Create Compliance reports based on how a
    resource (vehicle, worker) is in a geofenced
    property (e.g. Facility management, Distribution
    Centers)

Traditional Geofencing
  • Conventional solutions available today for mobile
    workforce management rely either GPS, RFID or
    WiFi based location information from the
    participating device to trigger an action
  • Advantages Very effective with active bread
    crumbing and geofencing, and they do a good job
    of creating fixed alerts (it depends).
  • Downside
  • Typically require a setup which includes special
    devices (telematics, smartphones with apps etc)
  • Installation and end user participation required.
  • Constant Pinging impacts battery on phones.
  • Requites rich internet connection.
  • High initial Capital Operational expense .

  • Geofencing has numerous business and personal
    applications in
  • many day to day activities e.g.
