Geolocation based attendance tracking system

Attendance has long been an integral aspect of institutions and organizations, serving as a fundamental measure of engagement, participation, and accountability within educational and professional settings. There are two common methods for the said job. First being the traditional pen and paper method, this method is popularly used but is also a cumbersome process, which takes a lot of time and manual effort, also it being difficult to maintain the records and high changes of proxy attendances. While the second method is the automated attendance which fills almost all the gaps of the first method, by using various technologies, we’ve integrated GPS and Geofencing technology to make the attendance system more feasible, precise, and flexible and bringing about accountability and transparency. This paper uses location as a proof of attendance and proposed a new time and attendance system based on location.
