A geofence is a virtual polygon over a real-world area; assets entering or exiting trigger automated rules. Implementations range from GPS rules on vehicles to camera-based zone analytics where pixel polygons are calibrated to ground coordinates. FI Tech uses geofences three ways: (1) restricted-zone intrusion alerts where camera detection plus polygon test fires HSE notifications; (2) drone no-fly enforcement aligned to GACA airspace zones plus per-site customer rules; (3) vehicle-fleet entry/exit logging with IoT trackers for IKTVA local-content auditing. Polygons live in PostGIS; boundary tests run at edge for sub-second latency.
