Disclosed are various embodiments for managing which location-based service zones to monitor within a geographic region. An active zone defining a geographic region and location-based service zones within the geographic region is provided by another computing device. The selection of a subset of the location-based service zones to monitor within an active zone can be based on an estimated current device location and/or other parameters.

High density location-based service zone management for a geographic region

Disclosed are various embodiments for managing location-based service zones being monitored by a client device. The location-based service zones within a geographic region can be organized in location-based service zone clusters. In response to receiving an active zone from a computing device, a client device can begin monitoring the geographic parameters for the top-level location-based service zone clusters. When the client device detects an entry into a particular location-based service zone cluster, the client device stops monitoring the top-level location-based service zone clusters and begins monitoring the location-based service zones that are within the particular location-based service zone cluster.

Location-based service zone cluster management and monitoring

Disclosed are various embodiments for managing which location-based service zones to monitor when the number location-based service zones within a geographic region exceed the amount the device can support. An active zone defining a geographic region and location-based service zones within the geographic region is provided by another computing device. When the number of location-based service zones meets or exceeds a predefined threshold, a subset of the location-based service zones is selected for monitoring according to a current device location and/or other parameters.
