Product summary
Boosting efficiency, visibility and compliance
Visibeat is a white-labelled location tracking and management platform for businesses and government bodies. It is used for tracking the live location of team members, creating hotspots (geofences) and tracking the activities within hotspots.
Admin and managers can use the web dashboard to manage operations, track team members in real-time, check location-based analytics and add questionnaires.
Humberside Police were looking to develop a digital solution to track the location of police officers. We implemented Visibeat for them and helped them to make the department more accountable.
HUMBERSIDE POLICE Police department uses the Visibeat web dashboard and mobile app to track patrolling activities in different hotspots in Northern Lincolnshire, Hull and the East Riding.
Key features and highlights
A comprehensive management platform
The platform brings together a bunch of features like location tracking and analytics, hotspot creation and management, user roles, activity tracking, etc.
It’s easy to create teams and add or remove officers using a bulk-import feature based on Active Directory. Different user roles (Admin, Supervisor, User or Manager) can be assigned to the officers to manage access and permissions.
Details of each officer can be easily accessed. Further, location trails for specific time periods can be seen in a timeline or map view. Location analytics give trends like average distance covered, etc.
The Humberside Police can easily create new geofences, i.e. hotspots by dragging and dropping pins on the map. Geofences can be assigned to teams and police officers and all activities inside a hotspot can be tracked.
Notifications and messages can be created and pushed to the dashboards of all officers or the selected ones. Real-time communication enables admin and officers to always be in sync with one another.
