Abstract
The described techniques relate generally to managing in-person access of users to physical properties based at least in part on tracking geographical locations of devices of the users, such as by using one or more geofences created around a physical property to provide authorized users with temporary access to the physical property based at least in part on tracked geographical locations of devices of the users. In some situations, a specialized server provides information to a user's mobile device about the geofence(s), and the mobile device notifies the specialized server when it breaches one or more of the geofences. The specialized server may perform further related activities, such as perform tracking of locations of users as they move around a physical property, and further analyzing the tracked location information to determine associated information and initiate corresponding additional automated activities.
