# Geospatial

Optimised real-time geospatial analytics for geofence occupancy and tracking

## Overview

Event based geospatial analytics provide the ability to create location aware solutions. Joule provides a small set of processor optimised for **real-time geospatial analytics**.

Users can define geofences of interest and configure triggers to inform them of occupancy.

### Example applications

1. Fleet management
2. Asset management
3. Geo-marketing
4. Personalised recommendations
