Abstract

A geofencing system (100) comprises at least one physical, moveable marker (102), the or each marker being arranged to define at least part of a geofence (106) based on the position of the moveable marker (102) such that changing the position of the or each moveable marker (102) changes the geofence (106). The or each marker (102) is arranged to provide a visible and/or audible indication of geofence (106). The system (100) also comprises at least one wearable device (104) arranged to receive data concerning the position of the geofence (106). The wearable device (104) is arranged to store up-to-date geofence information and to provide an alert in response to the wearable device (104) crossing the geofence (106).
