Abstract:
A determination is made as to whether a computing device is located inside a first geofence of a geofence environment. A first location determination mode available to the computing device for determining a location of the computing device is identified. A second location determination mode available to the computing device for determining a location of the computing device is identified, wherein the second location determination mode consumes less power than the first location determination mode. A selection is made between the first location determination mode and the second location determination mode, based on the determination of whether the computing device is located inside the first geofence. A next location of the computing device is determined using the selected location determination mode, a next location of the computing device.
