Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a non-transitory computer storage medium, for receiving user-defined routes, each user-defined route including a tripwire of multiple tripwires and a direction, where each user-defined route includes an action of multiple actions executed by a sub-system of a home monitoring system, detecting a first signal at a first tripwire including a first direction, determining a set of user-defined routes including the first tripwire and the first direction, detecting a second signal at a second tripwire including a second direction, determining a particular user-defined route of the set of user-defined routes including the first tripwire and the first direction and the second tripwire and the second direction, determining an action executed by a sub-system of the home monitoring system for the particular user-defined route traversed by a user, and triggering execution of the action based on the second signal at the second tripwire.

Tripwire-based geolocation system

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for automating bulk location-based actions in response to disaster events. A system obtains data defining zones related to different geographic locations and configures a set of preferences for each zone. One of the preferences is a command for responding to an event. The system detects a disaster event and determines that a location affected by the event is related to a zone defined at the system. The system obtains sensor data generated by a sensor in the zone that is connected to a monitoring system for the zone. The system generates an alert based on the sensor data and the command and provides the alert to a client device of an entity that manages properties in the zone. The alert provides an assessment of how the disaster event affects items at properties in the zone.
