DYNAMIC COOPERATIVE GEOFENCE

摘要

A system includes one or more location determining devices for determining the locations of a plurality of mobile objects and one or more computing devices. The one or more computing devices are operable to identify the geographic locations of the objects using data generated by the one or more location determining devices and generate a single geofence corresponding to the geographic locations of the objects, wherein the objects associated with the geofence form a geofence group. The one or more computing devices are further operable to identify a change in the geographic location of at least one of the objects and change the geofence to reflect the change in the geographic location of the at least one object. The one or more computing devices are further operable to, after creating the geofence, include additional objects in the geofence group and remove objects from the geofence group according to inclusion rules.

1. A system comprising:
one or more location determining devices for determining the geographic locations of a plurality of mobile objects; and one or more computing devices operable to—
using data generated by the one or more location determining devices, identify the geographic locations of the objects,generate a single geofence corresponding to the geographic locations of the objects,identify a change in the geographic location of at least one of the objects,change a shape of the geofence to reflect the change in the geographic location of the at least one object, andidentify a central geographic location closest a center of the geofence.
