This paper presents a study on GPS Based Location Monitoring System with Geo-fencing Capabilities. This system provided a high- security system that prevents vehicles from being stolen. It also issued an alert to the user based on the boundary of the location by using the Internet of Things (IoT). In this study, the system could easily monitor and track the location of the vehicle and was able to issue an alert when the vehicle exited the geofence area. This system was separated into two parts which were the hardware and software. The hardware parts were the ESP8266 NodeMCU and GPS module while Google Maps and IoT platform were the software parts. The admin could monitor the vehicle via the computer, and the notification alert was sent to the registered email of the admin when the vehicle exited or entered the geofence area. The prototype system was tested by moving the vehicle around the geofence area. The results showed the correct location of the vehicle and email notification alert when it exited or entered the boundaries. The location accuracy of about 95% compared to the real map on the mobile phone.
