Geofence Occupancy Trigger

Trigger geospatial events in real-time to drive location based use cases

---

Overview

Trigger a geofence based occupancy trigger using a custom event plugin.

Example

This example executes a custom marketing messenger plugin.

geofence occupancy trigger:
    name: marketingCampaign
    tracker field: geoTrackingInfo
    plugin: 
      com.fractalworks.streams.examples.telco.marketing.MarketingCampaignMessenger

When the processor receives event it checks if the geoTrackingInfo exist with a valid GeoTrackingInfo object.

Plugin Example

Simple example on how to implement an EventFunction for this processor type.

The processor adds a MarketingCampaignMessenger attribute with the following result

MarketingCampaignMessenger: Welcome to geofence 123
