Basically, Geo zones are virtual areas that are formed around a geographical location, to handle its data and traffic. These boundaries can be shaped around a house, between streets, and even around a municipal locality. These zones are formed using geofencing devices that keep track of an object connected to the device. It could be your car, your bike, or even your mobile phone. The geofencing device will monitor the object’s location while within the zone and alert you if and when the object leaves the virtual perimeter.
