CLUSTERING GEOFENCE-BASED ALERTS FOR MOBILE DEVICES

A computer-implemented method for alert notifications, comprising: determining, by one or more computing devices, a single geofence boundary around two or more associated points of interest to form a clustered geofence boundary encompassing the two or more associated points of interest; communicatin...

Zusammenfassung:A computer-implemented method for alert notifications, comprising: determining, by one or more computing devices, a single geofence boundary around two or more associated points of interest to form a clustered geofence boundary encompassing the two or more associated points of interest; communicating, by the one or more computing devices, the clustered geofence boundary data to a user computing device for the geofence boundary encompassing the two or more associated points of interest, wherein the user computing device is separate and distinct from the one or more computing devices; determining, by the one or more computing devices, that the user computing device has entered the clustered geofence boundary, which comprises receiving an indication from the user computing device that the user computing device has entered the clustered geofence boundary; and instructing, by the one or more computing devices, the user computing device to provide, in response to determining that the user computing device enters the clustered geofence boundary, an alert on the user computing device regarding the associated points of interest when the user device is determined to be in the clustered geofence boundary.
