GeoLocator

Welcome to the GeoLocator application! GeoLocator is meant to be a power user app for developers. This app was developed for the intention of using your location to interact with household appliances. For example, you could have a server that controls the lights in your home, in order to turn them off when you leave. GeoLocator uses geofencing technology to detect when you are inside or outside of a selected region of approximately 200 meters. When this occurs a POST request is made to the URL that you specify in the region settings screen. The content of this request in the form of the following JSON example:

{
"time":"1485936941.2561",
"location":"outside",
"region":"My Region"
}

In order for this to work, you must accept the location tracking settings. After accepting, the app will detect when your are inside or outside of the region from the background. You can even completely close the application! That makes the application light on battery usage.

Features:
-Background Geolocation monitoring
-Background POST requests to a server on entering or leaving a location
-Configurable URL that the POST requests are sent to
-Map based region settings

We hope you find creative ways to integrate this application. Have fun!
