context_page_description: Electronic tagging is a form of surveillance which uses an electronic device, fitted to the person.
  In some jurisdictions, an electronic tag fitted above the ankle is used for people as part of their bail or probation conditions. It is also used in healthcare settings and in immigration contexts in some jurisdictions. Electronic tagging can be used in combination with the global positioning system. For short-range monitoring of a person that wears an electronic tag, radio frequency technology is used.
