Hi Stefan

 

Our RayGun application does this. It was first developed for the Army to
tell soldiers when they were nearing mine fields. In our consumer version it
tells you when you are near other users and brokers a chat session.

Thanks

Hi Stefan,

 

The Geonotes feature of Geoloqi comes close to this.  It lets you leave a
note for yourself (or someone else I think) when you cross a geofence.  The
notes show up as push notifications.  Geoloqi also has an API that lets you
trigger custom events, so showing a website or video should be possible.

Hi,

In navigation systems it's obvious that if coming close to landmark an
alert is issued.

Does anybody know of a Smartphone app (and a website?) which displays
a website or video if close to a POI or crossing a polygon?

Think of an event which is issued when "crossing a geofence". Ideally
it's open to everybody (or customers) to supply POI with content like
for example for a mobile guide.

I found some OGC Sensor Web Enablement documents but no Web 2.0
application - except some local-based advertisement solutions.

Yours, Stefan
