1. An electronic device comprising:
- a first sensor configured to obtain location information of the electronic device;
a plurality of second sensors; and
at least one processor configured to;
receive, from an external electronic device, environmental information corresponding to a predefined area,identify, a first risk type of the predefined area and a first risk level associated with the first risk type of the predefined area, based on the environmental information,in response to identifying that a part of the predefined area has a second risk level equal to or higher than a reference risk level of the first risk type, determine a first geo-fence related to the first risk type using location information corresponding to the part of the predefined area, based on the identified first risk type of the part of the predefined area, andin response to identifying that the electronic device enters the first geo-fence by using location information of the electronic device obtained from the first sensor, obtain sensing data from at least one sensor associated with the first risk type from among the plurality of second sensors.

Abstract
A method and apparatus for operating an electronic device based on environmental information are provided. The electronic device includes sensors functionally connected to the electronic device; and at least one processor configured to: receive, at least one sensor of the sensors, environmental information corresponding to a surrounding area of the electronic device, determine a risk level based on the environmental information, perform a first function if the risk level satisfies a first condition, and perform a second function if the risk level satisfies a second condition different from the first condition.

18. A method for controlling an electronic device comprising:
-
receiving, from an external electronic device, environmental information corresponding to a predefined area; identifying, a first risk type of the predefined area and a first risk level associated with the first risk type of the predefined area, based on the environmental information; in response to identifying that a part of the predefined area has a second risk level equal to or higher than a reference risk level of the first risk type, determining a first geo-fence related to the first risk type using location information corresponding to the part of the predefined area, based on the identified first risk type of the part of the predefined area; and in response to identifying that the electronic device enters the first geo-fence by using location information of the electronic device obtained from a first sensor of the electronic device, obtaining sensing data from at least one sensor associated with the first risk type from among a plurality of second sensors of the electronic device. - View Dependent Claims (19)
