How do I set up geofencing?

The geofencing API allows you to define perimeters, also referred to as geofences, which surround the areas of interest . Your app gets a notification when the device crosses a geofence, which allows you to provide a useful experience when users are in the vicinity.

IPS is Indoor Positioning System . See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indoor_positioning_system. Geofencing is locating where you are geographically for, say, turning on WiFi as you get near home, or turning it off as you’re driving away.

Create and add geofences

Both Android and iOS allow you to create a geofence by specifying the radius and lat-long (short for latitude and longitude) of the centre of the real geographical region that you wish to monitor . Being able to create such virtual boundaries have incredible use-cases for mobile publishers and consumer businesses.
