This proactive feature ensures that users are immediately notified in real time of any fence damage or any attempts to tamper with the fence. By receiving timely alerts, users can take prompt action to prevent elephants from breaching the protected area, reducing maintenance costs and eliminating the need for constant manpower.
Real-time Stakeholder Alerts: GajahSafe has the capability to send real-time alerts to various stakeholders, such as farmers, village communities, and government officials. In the event of potential threats or elephant sightings, these alerts ensure that relevant parties are notified promptly. This collaborative approach enables quick response and coordination among stakeholders, helping to prevent any potential damage or harm caused by elephants.
Overall, GajahSafe offers a comprehensive and reliable security solution. Its advanced detection system, coupled with a powerful deterrence mechanism and real-time alerts, make it an ideal choice for safeguarding farms, villages, and other areas prone to elephant encounters.
