Forensic analysis of geofencing in fleet vehicles – Forensic documentation of virtual geofence boundaries
Geofencing functions automatically trigger a logged event or a notification when a defined geographical area is entered or exited, and are frequently used in fleet management.
This data may be relevant in determining whether and when a vehicle has left a specified operational area.

Typical areas of application
How a geofencing analysis works
Subject to the appropriate authorisation, available geofencing event logs are backed up, organised chronologically and cross-referenced with further location and usage data.
Why is geofencing analysis relevant in a forensic context?
Documented instances of crossing boundaries can provide important evidence for investigating breaches of usage terms or unauthorised journeys.
When combined with other location data, this provides a detailed picture of actual vehicle usage compared with operational targets.
