What operating systems are compatible with the LocoNav app?
The LocoNav app is compatible with Android as well as iOS. So you can use the app seamlessly on both of these operating systems.
Is my information on the platform secure?
Yes, your information on the LocoNav platform is entirely secure. There are 3 levels of security layers that we follow:
- User Authentication: Data can only be viewed by the users after logging in to the application.
- Resource based authorization: This is the second layer of protection offered by the platform. A user can only access information to which he/she is authorized. This ensures that a logged in user can never view or modify the information which belongs to other users of the system.
- User login activity tracking: We store information like “last signed in time”, “IP address of user when they sign in” etc.
What is Geofence?
Geofencing is creation of a virtual perimeter that is set around a particular geographical area. The boundary is set such that as and when the vehicle, or a personnel, enters or exits the location, instant alerts are triggered. This will enable the user to discern the exact location the device is at, along with an accurate log of movements made.
A geofence is curated with the help of GPS, which provides precise location coordinates. In order to set the “fence” around a particular region, you can specify the distance and the diameter as per your business needs.
