How technology safeguards field data integrity and prevents fraud

Field data fraud leads to major safety issues, expensive repairs, and lost public trust. Each fake report or reused photo allows critical issues to go unnoticed, often until a failure occurs. Unfortunately, these risks stay hidden without the right tools to catch red flags early.

Our infographic shares real-world cases of fraud in field operations, where outdated inspections and falsified reports caused lasting problems. Learn how technology could have uncovered these issues sooner, sparing organizations from costly oversights. Inside this resource, you’ll discover:

• Eye-opening case studies from industries like utilities, transportation, and infrastructure, showing how unnoticed fraud turned into major hazards and millions in repair costs. Each example highlights how routine field inspections were falsely reported, with issues surfacing only after damage was done.
• Key fraud indicators that tech tools can catch in real-time, from mismatched GPS data to falsified timestamps and recycled images. While traditional reporting missed these signals, verification tools could have flagged these discrepancies immediately, stopping the fraud before it escalated.
• Essential verification tools that make a difference. With geolocation tracking, real-time timestamps, and AI-powered checks, field teams can capture and validate data accurately. These tech solutions create field data integrity and accountability, ensuring that reports reflect true field conditions.
