Geo-fencing, line-of-sight calculations, geo-triggered events, dynamic and complex route calculations and automated anomaly detection are just a mouse click away. Independent benchmark tests by academia and industry leave no doubt: LuciadLightspeed is over 100 times faster and more accurate than traditional GIS software.
Two geofences defined in a GPS application. A geofence is a virtual "perimeter" or "fence" around a given geographic feature. [1] A geofence can be dynamically generated (as in a radius around a point location) or match a predefined set of boundaries (such as school zones or neighborhood boundaries).

Azure Maps Creator is a tool for generating custom maps for locations like large office complexes, construction sites, or university campuses. These maps can then be integrated into applications and used with other Azure Maps functions for purposes such as wayfinding and maintenance and security in building automation contexts.
A 2021 transparency report showed that 25% of data requests from law enforcement to Google were geo-fence data requests. [5] Google is the most common recipient of geo-fence warrants and the main provider of such data, [4] [6] although companies including Apple, Snapchat, Lyft, and Uber have also received such warrants.

OpenStreetMap (abbreviated OSM) is a free, open map database updated and maintained by a community of volunteers via open collaboration. [4] Contributors collect data from surveys, trace from aerial photo imagery or satellite imagery, and import from other freely licensed geodata sources.
Google Gears provided geolocation support for older and non-compliant browsers, including Internet Explorer 7.0+ as a Gears plugin, and Google Chrome which implemented Gears natively. It also supported geolocation on mobile devices as a plugin for the Android browser (pre version 2.0) and Opera Mobile for Windows Mobile .
Principles of geolocation using GPS. Geopositioning is the process of determining or estimating the geographic position of an object or a person. [1] Geopositioning yields a set of geographic coordinates (such as latitude and longitude) in a given map datum.
