How Stalker Alert works with BluTag
•
Stalker Alert is assigned to a victim profile similar to the way a BluTag is assigned to an
enrollee profile.
•
The victim profile and enrollee profile are linked in VeriTracks
•
Both BluTag and Stalker Alert determine and record their position on Earth once every
minute.
•
VeriTracks stores three concentric zones that “travel” with the Stalker Alert.
•
When each device reports its GPS, VeriTracks compares the points. If a comparison of
BluTag and Stalker Alert points determines that the enrollee is inside any of the three
zones, VeriTracks immediately records the event.
•
VeriTracks sends immediate notifications to the supervising agency as well as the victim.
•
For added safety, Stalker alert detects the rf signal emitted by the enrollee’s BluTag.

Enrollment Basics – Maintain Stalker Alert in Readiness
1. Turn on the Stalker Alert by
y placing
g it on its charger
for at least 2
hours before an installation.
2. Acquire GPS by giving the tag a clear view of the sky for 45 minutes.
The Stalker Alert will usually acquire GPS in the first few minutes, but
for optimal performance it needs to download the GPS almanac data.

If the devices report tracks that are within 4 miles of each other, the devices will begin to

Supervision
– Program
Level Best Practices
•
Clearly defined roles and responsibilities for managers and agents/officers.
•
Clear and inviolable procedures for responding to every VeriTracks event.
•
Explicit and enforced sanctions for antagonist violations.
•
Escalation plans for agent/officer notification.
•
Realistic expectations for protecting the victim. An antagonist living two blocks from a
victim is not a good fit for this program. Does antagonist regularly travel near the victim
(f example,
(for
l pass by
b th
the victim’s
i ti ’ h
house on the
th way to
t work)?
k)?

Supervision
– Supervision
Routine Best Practices
Daily is a minimum level. More frequently is better.
•
Daily review of victim charging habits
•
Daily review of victim tracks to provide insight to victim’s compliance (keep the tracker
with them)
•
Daily review of victim events to monitor GPS and cell signal reception.
•
Daily review of enrollee charging habits
•
Daily review of enrollee events to monitor zone and device compliance
•
Daily review of enrollee events to monitor GPS and cell signal reception.
•
Daily review of combined victim and enrollee tracks to highlight potential stalking, etc.

Minimum suggested proximity zone sizes are:
Caution
16,000 ft
Warning
11,000 ft
Danger
6 000 ft
6,000
These are slightly greater than 1 mile increments and so represent one minute of travel
at 60 mph.
Note: If one of the paired devices is not calling or getting valid GPS, the events will generate
based on the last valid track point for this device. For example, if the Enrollee BluTag has
not called in 2 hours, and the Stalker Alert reports GPS points within proximity of the last
reported position of the BluTag, the event will be generated based on the info available.
Stalker Alert® and VeriTracks® Training, Page 32
Supervision
– How It All Works Together
When linked BluTag and Stalker Alert devices each reports its GPS, VeriTracks
compares the points.
– If a comparison of points determines that the enrollee falls within the
parameters of a fixed proximity, both devices will increase their reporting
tempo as described previously.
– If a comparison of points determines that the enrollee falls within the
parameters of a custom proximity
proximity, VeriTracks will send an immediate
notification in accordance with the setup for both the victim and the
supervising agency..
Note: If one of the paired devices is not calling or getting valid GPS, the events will generate
based on the last valid track point for this device. For example, if the Enrollee BluTag has not
called in 2 hours,
hours and the Stalker Alert reports GPS points within proximity of the last
reported position of the BluTag, the event will be generated based on the info available.
