1. A monitoring system, the monitoring system comprising:
- a monitoring device associated with a monitor target;
a database operable to store a number of prohibited zones; and
wherein the system is operable to;
receive a first location of the monitoring device;
identify a first subset of the number of prohibited zones within a first range of the first location;
store the first subset to the monitoring device;
receive a second location of the monitoring device;
identify a second subset of the number of prohibited zones within a second range of the second location; and
store the second subset to the monitoring device when the second location is within a defined distance to an edge of the first range.

15. A monitoring device, the monitoring device comprising:
-
a location monitoring system operable to indicate movement of the monitoring device to a central monitor; a connection device operable to attach to a human monitor target; a zone memory; a prohibited zone monitoring system operable to; receive a first location from the location monitoring system and a second location from the location monitoring system; determine whether the first location is within a first subset of zones, wherein the first subset of zones indicates a first set of prohibited zones determined based upon a third location and stored by the prohibited zone monitoring system to the zone memory; determine whether the second location is within a second subset of zones, wherein the second subset of zones indicates a second set of prohibited zones determined based upon a fourth location and stored by the prohibited zone monitoring system to the zone memory; and wherein only one of the first subset of zones or the second subset of zones is stored in the zone memory. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)

21. A method for prohibited zone monitoring, the method comprising:
-
receiving a first location of a monitoring device; receiving a second location of the monitoring device; storing a number of zones, wherein the zones are of at least a zone type, wherein the monitoring device is prohibited from entering an area of the zone type; identifying a first subset of the number of zones of the zone type within a first range of the first location; storing the first subset to the monitoring device; identifying a second subset of the number of zones of the zone type within a second range of the second location; and storing the second subset to the monitoring device when the second location is within a defined distance to an edge of the first range.
