METHODS AND SYSTEMS RELATED TO TIME TRIGGERED GEOFENCING
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving a set of variables related to a geo-fence to be established at repeating intervals lasting for a preset duration, each instance of the repeating intervals at a predetermined time;
establishing the geo-fence at the predetermined time, the geo-fence established for the preset duration;
receiving signals indicative of a location of a vehicle, the receiving by an onboard device coupled to the vehicle;
determining if the vehicle has crossed the geo-fence within the preset duration; and
if the vehicle has crossed the geo-fence within the preset durationsending an alert related to the location of the vehicle.

Abstract
Time Triggered Geo-fencing. At least some of the example embodiments are methods including: receiving a set of variables related to a geo-fence to be established at repeating intervals lasting for a preset duration, each instance of the repeating intervals at a predetermined time; establishing the geo-fence at the predetermined time, the geo-fence established for the preset duration; receiving signals indicative of a location of a vehicle, the receiving by an onboard device coupled to the vehicle; determining if the vehicle has crossed the geo-fence within the preset duration; and if the vehicle has crossed the geo-fence within the preset duration sending an alert related to the location of the vehicle.
