Legal Question in Criminal Law in Georgia

Hello, I'm working on a criminal justice assignment for college in Georgia. I read on georgialegalaid.org that in Georgia, as long as you're in public and not driving a vehicle, that you do not have to disclose basic identification information if requested by the officer. Is this true? And if so, what steps would the officer then take to identify the client?
