Purpose
A checkpoint-oriented reporting concept for patrols at business campuses, industrial sites and managed buildings. Officers can record observations for a supervisor’s overview.
All applications
Operations
ID on Tap
Checkpoint notes and patrol observations for private security teams and sites.
Predictive AI
Prediction from this application's own analytics
Like every Cloud on Tap application, ID on Tap includes AI prediction based on the analytics it holds in the cloud. Those analytics draw on the records submitted through its authorised workflows, under the same role-based access as the rest of the record.
Predictions support people's judgement. They do not replace review, professional advice or the configured workflow.
The problem addressed
Patrol notes can be difficult to organise by checkpoint and shift when reports are not linked to a consistent site record.
Intended audiences
- Private security companies
- Industrial sites
- Business campuses
- Building managers
Capabilities
- Identify a checkpoint
- Record patrol observations and incident notes
- Attach a photo where supported
- Review patrol reports in a supervisor overview or map where supported
- Embedded predictive AI based on the analytics of the respective application in the cloud.
Roles
- Patrol officer or guard
- Shift supervisor
- Security administrator
Workflow
- 01Open the checkpoint information from a tag
- 02Enter an observation or incident note
- 03A supervisor reviews submitted reports and site history
Requirements
- A COTIC-compatible smartphone or link, programmed physical tags for real taps, network access and an authorised account for reporting.
Important limitation
- Opening a static COTIC URL does not prove physical presence, prevent impersonation or create certified evidence. Stronger proof-of-presence requires separate verified implementation.
In practice · synthetic story
01 · Scenario
At a fictional business campus, a guard opens a checkpoint record, notes that a service entrance is clear and submits the report for the shift supervisor.
02 · Outcome
The result: the shift supervisor can review the observation in the checkpoint’s history.
Synthetic illustration. No real site, person or prediction result is shown.
Frequently asked questions
Does scanning a checkpoint prove a patrol visit?+
No. A static tag opens a link; it is not verified proof of a person’s presence or identity.
Is this only for police forces?+
No. The described use cases include private security teams and managed facilities.
