This system facilitates remote verification of an individual’s presence at a designated location using mobile technology. It’s often employed in community supervision programs to confirm adherence to curfew restrictions or location-based requirements. The process typically involves the individual receiving a notification on their mobile device prompting them to complete a check-in, usually requiring a photo or other form of identity verification tied to their location.
The advantages of such a system include enhanced accountability, reduced reliance on in-person check-ins, and improved efficiency for supervision officers. Historically, monitoring compliance relied heavily on scheduled office visits, which proved resource-intensive. This technology provides a more flexible and cost-effective means of ensuring individuals are complying with court-ordered stipulations.
