Bus and route safety
Boarding records, live vehicle position and route deviation alerts for every school bus you run or contract.
What it does
What it does
- Records which child boarded which bus, at which stop, at what time — by RFID card tap or attendant confirmation on a handset.
- Tracks each vehicle against its assigned route and raises an alert when it leaves the corridor or stops where it should not.
- Notifies the transport desk first, and parents only for the children on the affected vehicle.
- Produces a per-trip record the school can pull up months later when a parent asks what happened on a particular morning.
Deployment
How it is deployed
- We audit your existing vehicle trackers. AIS-140 devices already fitted for compliance usually feed Guardian directly, so most fleets need no new hardware on the bus.
- Card readers or attendant handsets are fitted per vehicle, with a two-week parallel run against the paper register before anyone relies on the digital record.
- Routes and stops are drawn with your transport in-charge, not imported from a map — the corridor has to match the road the driver actually takes.
- Contracted fleets are onboarded the same way, with the operator's consent recorded in writing.
Day to day
What the school sees
- A live map of every vehicle, with its route corridor drawn on it.
- A boarding list per trip, showing who tapped in and who did not.
- An alert queue with the reason, the vehicle, the time and the acknowledging staff member.
- A monthly summary of deviations and their resolutions, for the transport committee.
Data
What data it produces
- Boarding and alighting events per child
- 1 academic year, then deleted
- Vehicle position traces
- 90 days
- Deviation alerts and their resolutions
- 1 academic year
- Driver and attendant duty records
- As your HR policy requires
Limits
What it does not do
- It does not track a child outside the bus journey. Position data belongs to the vehicle, not the student.
- It does not share a child's location with other parents. A parent sees their own child's boarding status only.
- It does not score or rank drivers automatically. Deviation alerts go to a person, who decides what they mean.
- It does not build behavioural profiles of children. The Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 prohibits behavioural monitoring of anyone under 18, and that prohibition holds even with parental consent.
- It does not sell or share data with advertisers, insurers or any third party. There is no such clause in our contract because there is no such product.

We walk the site, tell you what your existing equipment can and cannot support, and put it in writing.

Campus AI cameras
Cameras that flag a gate left open or a crowd forming, and stay quiet otherwise.
Network layer security
Keep cameras and lab machines on their own segments, so one compromised device reaches nothing else.
AI lab setup
A working teaching lab: machines, curriculum-aligned projects and staff who can run it without us.
