Abstract
A system described herein may identify proximity events using geofencing capabilities of user equipment ('UE') such as mobile phones. The UE may interact with a mobile client manager ('MCM') to identify landmarks (or “locations of interest”) near the UE. The UE may identify a set of local landmarks that are nearest to the UE. The UE may utilize geofence-based location services to reduce power consumption when outside geofences associated with local landmarks. If the UE enters a geofence associated with a local landmark, the UE may utilize granular location services for increased accuracy. The UE may notify the MCM when the UE “dwells” near a given landmark by entering the geofence associated with the landmark but does not approach a threshold distance of the landmark. The UE may cease utilizing granular location services when dwelling, and may instead use location services based on push messages received from the MCM.
