1. A method for alcohol monitoring of a user, the method comprising:
with a transdermal alcohol sensing device, collecting a set of samples from a region proximal to a skin surface of the user;
processing the set of samples to determine a set of intoxication metrics;
processing data collected at a set of supplementary sensors to determine a set of locations associated with the user; and
controlling an electronic display in communication with the transdermal alcohol sensing device based on the set of intoxication metrics and the set of locations.
