GPS and selfie-verified attendance for security guards in Anand, Gujarat โ a punch is only accepted from inside the assigned site's geofence, with fake-GPS attempts flagged automatically. Built by an agency that understands Anand's own operating conditions โ India's dairy-industry hub, headquarters of the Amul cooperative.
A paper register or a simple app that lets a guard mark themselves present from anywhere solves the wrong problem โ it records that someone tapped a button, not that a guard was physically at their post. For a client paying for on-site security coverage, that gap matters far more than it looks like on paper.
Geofenced attendance closes that gap: a punch is only accepted when the guard's phone reports a GPS position inside the site's configured boundary โ a circle or, for irregularly shaped compounds, a polygon boundary โ at the moment of the punch. A selfie captured at the same time gives a supervisor a visual record to match against the roster.
Location-spoofing apps are common enough that attendance systems need to account for them directly. A punch reported from a device running a mock-location app is detected and rejected rather than silently accepted as a genuine GPS fix โ closing a loophole that a naive "just check the coordinates" approach would miss entirely.
Attendance is checked against the assigned shift window, including overnight shifts that cross midnight.
A guard sees a full month's attendance history at a glance in the app.
Each punch captures a selfie, giving a supervisor a visual match against the guard roster.
