# Device Tracking User Manual

## Overview

The device tracking feature in the app enables the user to store the location(coordinates) of the device.

## Key Features

It can be used to:

* Track the device path.
* Display data in dashboards to visualise the user’s movement.
* Identify areas where the user spends more time (multiple coordinates captured for the same location indicate ongoing activity)
* Verify whether a distributor has stayed within the assigned area or deviated from it.
* Fraud Detection: Detect potential fraud by monitoring unusual or inconsistent movement patterns

This helps in understanding user behaviour and activity patterns in specific areas.

## Steps

1. Coordinates will be captured automatically after a specific time interval as soon as the user selects the project.
2. Users will receive notifications about the location captured.
3. Then it will be shown as the unsynced records in the app, which can be synced to the server by clicking on the sync data button or by auto-syncing.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.digit.org/health/access/public-health-product-suite/health-campaign-management-hcm/device-tracking-user-manual.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
