Abstract: A system for generating a geofence may include a server that receives location data for an area of interest from a client device. In some embodiments, the system may determine at least two boundary coordinates for the area of interest based on the received location data. The system also may determine an anchor point for a geofence and/or a geofence size based on the at least two boundary coordinates. The at least two boundary coordinates may be opposite corners of the area of interest and the anchor point may be a coordinate between the at least two boundary coordinates. The system also may apply an adjustment factor to determine the size of the geofence. The adjustment factor may be determined based on the distance between the at least two boundary coordinates. Other implementations also are described.
