Abstract

The present disclosure is directed to systems and techniques for improved geofence registration for automatic detection of geographic region crossings. In one example, the systems and techniques can register a first geofence encompassing a first area, wherein the first area is associated with a first location coordinate. A composite geofence can be generated encompassing a refined geofence area that is a subset of the first area, wherein the composite geofence includes the first geofence and one or more additional geofences. Each of the one or more additional geofences can be registered using an offset relative to the first location coordinate. An occurrence of a geofence event can be determined for at least one of the additional geofences. Based on the occurrence of the geofence event for at least one of the additional geofences, an exit notification can be generated for the refined geofence area of the composite geofence.
