Geogentia, a provider of geospatial intelligence and big data in Holland (southwest of Grand Rapids), unveiled In:SITE, a service aimed at enhancing contraband detection within correctional facilities and similar high-security areas.

In:SITE was designed to be a “game-changer” capable of identifying the presence of unauthorized mobile devices, including cell phones, tablets, and computers, without the need for specialized hardware installations.

In:SITE’s design uses Geogentia’s geospatial data technology to generate detailed, easy-to-understand reports revealing the presence of prohibited devices in a facility. They also provide insights into common tactics used for contraband smuggling.

“In:SITE embodies our dedication to offering solutions that are both simple and advanced in the realm of geospatial intelligence,” says Brandon Gregg, the CEO of Geogentia. “Now, facility administrators can quickly receive comprehensive reports on unauthorized mobile devices via email. This represents a straightforward yet effective approach to tackling a complex issue.”

Affiliated with the American Correctional Association, Geogentia is participating in the 154th Congress of Correction, scheduled in Nashville, Tenn., from Aug. 15 to 18. This event will provide a platform for correctional professionals to In:SITE can do.

“Our commitment lies in enhancing the security and contraband control of facilities, and we eagerly anticipate showcasing the significant contributions In:SITE can make in these areas,” says Gregg.
