Ezitracker: An Employee Is Showing a Very Large Geofence Breach

Description: Why is an employee showing a geofence breach of 4000+ m when they should be at the site?

Updated over 3 months ago

Environment:
Ezitracker mobile app and geofence tracking

Issue:
An employee appears to be far outside the geofence zone, despite being at the correct site.

Solution:

Ezitracker calculates geofence breaches using the GPS location reported by the employee’s mobile device. A large breach (e.g. 4000+ meters) may be caused by inaccurate GPS data sent from the device.

To troubleshoot:

  1. Confirm the Employee’s Location
    Ensure the employee is physically at the correct site.

  2. Check the Device’s GPS Functionality

    • Make sure location services are enabled.

    • Confirm the device has a clear signal (avoid enclosed or underground areas).

    • Restart the device if needed.

  3. Clear Cache and Cookies (if using browser-based tracking)
