1. An apparatus for location-based communication, comprising:
- a processor; and
a memory, the memory storing instructions that when executed by the processor, cause the processor to;
schedule a communication between a contact center and a communication device associated with a user;
prompt the user to configure geographic data including a path and direction of movement for the communication device;
prompt the user to indicate, via an interactive window, a line on a map implemented as the path and direction of movement to trigger the communication, wherein the line comprises a plurality of points;
track positions of the communication device; and
initiate the communication, by the contact center, in response to determining that the positions of the communication device are within the configured path and direction of movement.

10. A method for location-based communication, the method comprising:
-
scheduling by a computing device having a processor, communication from a contact center to a communication device associated with a user; presenting to the user an interactive window by the computing device for prompting the user to configure geographic data including a path and direction of movement associated with the communication device; prompting the user to indicate, via an interactive window, a line on a map implemented by the computing device as the path and direction of movement implemented for triggering the communication, the line comprising a plurality of points; periodically tracking by the computing device positions of the communication device; and in response to determining that the positions of the communication device are within the configured path and direction of movement, initiating, by the contact center, the communication. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
