GPS technology is a great addition to the suite of tools and methods supervising agents/officers use to monitor the movements and compliance of enrollees. It allows supervising agents/officers to more closely monitor the movements of enrollees while increasing the level of community safety. This technology is highly effective, but it is not a replacement for in-person interaction between supervising agents/officers and enrollees. In fact, no technology can replace the critical person-to-person meetings, phone calls and visits. These interactions between supervising agents/officers and enrollees provide much needed information that isn’t available by simply looking at a map of tracks.
