US9119038 - Systems and methods for Comparative Geofencing Systems and methods for Comparative Geofencing enable tracking of devices within overlapping geofences, allowing dynamic demographic comparisons between regions. Novel geolocation query techniques reduce battery and bandwidth usage while increasing resolution during specific time frames. This technology provides real-time insights into user demographics, enhancing decision-making for businesses and events. | 1. A method for tracking locations of a plurality of devices within overlapping geofences, comprising: receiving, by a location analyzer executed by a computing device, an identification of (i) a first region defined by a first geofence; (ii) a second region defined by a second geofence distinct from the first geofence; and (iii) a third region defined by a third geofence including the first region and second region; receiving, by the location analyzer, a plurality of arrival notifications from a corresponding plurality of devices, each arrival notification sent by each device responsive to said device determining it has entered the third geofence; receiving, by the location analyzer, user information for a user of each of the plurality of devices; identifying, by the location analyzer, a first subset of the plurality of devices that are within the first region and a second subset of the plurality of devices that are within the second region; comparing, by the location analyzer, user information of the users of the first subset of the plurality of devices and user information of the users of the second subset of the plurality of devices; and transmitting, by the location analyzer to a second computing device, a comparison metric identifying a difference between users of the first subset of the plurality of devices and users of the second subset of the plurality of devices. |
