Abstract: A system for tracking mobile points of interest within a region can include beacons affixed to mobile points of interest, mobile computing devices, and an Internet-connected server. Each of the beacons can broadcast advertisements with unique identifying information via a short-range communication protocol. Each computing device can include beacon communication hardware, Internet communication hardware, and geolocation capability. Each computing device can record advertisements from beacons along with corresponding geolocation information. The computing devices can filter the recorded received advertisements along with corresponding geolocation information, to result in device-filtered beacon location data. The mobile computing devices can transmit the device-filtered beacon location data to the server, which can receive and record the device-filtered beacon location data from the computing devices.
