Abstract
A device obtains and stores presence reporting area (PRA) data, including an area identifier, an event start time, and an event end time. The device receives, at a first point in time, an indication that a user device is present in an area identified by the area identifier. The device determines whether the first point in time is at or between the event start time and the event end time, and selectively reports a presence of the user device in the area based on a result of determining whether the first point in time is at or between the event start time and the event end time.
