1. A method comprising:

  • initiating, by a device, a transmission of a spatial event request via a wireless network to a remote service platform for a location-based notification associated with a spatial event, wherein the spatial event request specifies boundary coordinates that define a bounded area for determining the location-based notification without specifying current or projected coordinates of the device to the remote service platform;

    in response to the spatial event request, receiving, from the remote service platform to the device, at least one spatial polygon located within the bounded area, wherein the at least one spatial polygon defines a geographic area associated with the spatial event and includes a triggering zone of the location-based notification; and

    triggering, by the device, a presentation of the location-based notification, a presentation of one or more vehicular driving instructions, a presentation of the bounded area, or a combination thereof on a user interface of the device when a location of the device is monitored by the device to be within the triggering zone.
