Geolocation: Every Entry Knows Where It Happened

When a device shares its position, FaceBioTime stores those coordinates with the clock-in and plots them on a map beside the photo that was captured. A question about an hour becomes a lookup instead of an argument.

Why it matters

A timestamp on its own tells you nothing about where someone was. Open any employee’s entries and the map shows each one as a pin — green for time in, blue for time out — with the photo taken at that moment. Weeks later, that is still the record.

To be precise about what this is: location is evidence recorded with the entry, not a gate in front of it. A device that declines to share its position still logs the punch, and FaceBioTime does not refuse an entry on distance. What stops someone clocking in at a site they do not work at is area restriction, which checks the roster and the schedule before anything is written.

Benefits and pros

A map, not a spreadsheet

Each entry is a pin you can click, showing the time, the type of punch and the photo captured with it.

Ideal for mobile teams

Field staff, delivery crews and rotating job sites get the same record as a fixed kiosk, with no extra hardware.

Disputes become lookups

A face match says who, the photo says what they looked like, and the coordinates say where. All three stay with the hour.

Nothing extra to do

Capture happens as part of the scan. Nobody fills in a location field and no one has to remember to.
