Read full descriptionHide full description
This application is a proof-of-presence (PoP) system designed to verify and record a person’s presence at specific locations and times. It helps organizations monitor and manage the work of security guards and other field employees. The manager can create patrol routes, set visit schedules, assign guards to specific points, and manage their work shifts. During a patrol, the employee confirms each visit using GPS coordinates, NFC tags, or QR codes, providing real-time verification of their presence. The system ensures accountability and transparency in territory control and also supports shift management, clocking, and attendance tracking.
