Crime Identification by Geofencing Enforcing Co-operative Platform

Now a days, many people fall victims at the hands of crimes such as kidnapping, chain snatching, eve teasing and child abuse (Suyama, Inoue In: IEEE/ACIS 15th International conference computer and information science, 2016; Kumar Emergency information system architecture for disaster management: metro city perspective, pp 560–564, 2017; Council Improving disaster management: the role of IT in mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery, National Academies Press, 2007). This research work proposes a system which will be useful for monitoring crime. The proposed solution for public safety is based on information and resource sharing. Sharing information between services allows acquiring more knowledge about the current events of the crime-prone area that helps users to less prone to crime activity. Authors developed geofences that help user to be alert in the restricted area which is prepared by the admin inside the application. The latitude and longitude of the geofences are stored on server, whereas the entire user data is stored in the database. Later the data is accessed from server to the mobile application. It is observed that if user is made aware for crime he or she will be less victim of crime.
