Geo Fencing Overview

Article sections

    Introduction

    Geo fencing is a technology that allows businesses or individuals to create virtual boundaries or perimeters around a specific geographic area. It utilizes GPS (Global Positioning System), RFID (Radio Frequency Identification), Wi-Fi, or cellular data to define these boundaries. When a mobile device or GPS-enabled device enters or exits the defined area, Geo Fencing triggers predefined actions or notifications.
