Active geofencing is a location-based technology that establishes virtual boundaries, known as 'geofences', around specific geographic areas. These geofences trigger predetermined actions or notifications when a mobile device or asset enters or exits the defined area in real-time. Operators utilize this technology to deliver targeted advertisements or customized messages directly to users when their device enters a designated geographical area.
The primary categories of active geofencing are fixed and mobile. Fixed active geofencing involves setting up static virtual boundaries around particular locations and activating actions or notifications when devices enter or leave these predefined areas. It encompasses various components, including hardware, services, and software, and utilizes technologies such as cellular networks, GPS, RFID, and WIFI. Active geofencing finds applications across organizations of various sizes, ranging from large enterprises to small and medium-sized businesses, across a multitude of industries, including banking, financial services, insurance, retail, defense, government, healthcare, industrial manufacturing, transportation, logistics, and more.
