A GEO - Tagging Based Hybrid Mobile Attendance System
Biometrics technologies verify identity through characteristics such as fingerprints, faces, irises, retinal patterns, palm prints, voice, hand-written signatures, and so on. These techniques, which use physical data, are receiving attention as a personal authentication method that is more convenient than conventional methods such as password or ID cards because it uses data taken from measurements and such data is unique to the individual and remains so throughout one’s lifetime. Geo-tagging is the process of adding geographical information to various media in the form of metadata. The data usually consists of coordinates like latitude and longitude, but may even include bearing, altitude, distance and place names. By combining the above services, we can help the public and private sector offices like Survey Department, Revenue Department, Electricity department, Telephone Department, Public Works Department (PWD), Transport Department (NH, KSRTC etc.) to take care of the employee’s attendance by asking them to install this proposed application in their smart phone.
