Response Structure

  • (dict) --

    • CreateTime (datetime) --

      The timestamp for when the geofence collection was created in ISO 8601 format: YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.sssZ

    • GeofenceId (string) --

      The geofence identifier.

    • Geometry (dict) --

      Contains the geofence geometry details describing a polygon or a circle.

      • Circle (dict) --

        A circle on the earth, as defined by a center point and a radius.

        • Center (list) --

          A single point geometry, specifying the center of the circle, using WGS 84 coordinates, in the form [longitude, latitude] .

          • (float) --
        • Radius (float) --

          The radius of the circle in meters. Must be greater than zero and no larger than 100,000 (100 kilometers).

      • Polygon (list) --

        A polygon is a list of linear rings which are each made up of a list of vertices.

        Each vertex is a 2-dimensional point of the form: [longitude, latitude] . This is represented as an array of doubles of length 2 (so [double, double] ).

        An array of 4 or more vertices, where the first and last vertex are the same (to form a closed boundary), is called a linear ring. The linear ring vertices must be listed in counter-clockwise order around the ring’s interior. The linear ring is represented as an array of vertices, or an array of arrays of doubles ( [[double, double], ...] ).

        A geofence consists of a single linear ring. To allow for future expansion, the Polygon parameter takes an array of linear rings, which is represented as an array of arrays of arrays of doubles ( [[[double, double], ...], ...] ).

        A linear ring for use in geofences can consist of between 4 and 1,000 vertices.

        • (list) --
          • (list) --
            • (float) --
    • Status (string) --

      Identifies the state of the geofence. A geofence will hold one of the following states:

      • ACTIVE — The geofence has been indexed by the system.
      • PENDING — The geofence is being processed by the system.
      • FAILED — The geofence failed to be indexed by the system.
      • DELETED — The geofence has been deleted from the system index.
      • DELETING — The geofence is being deleted from the system index.
    • UpdateTime (datetime) --

      The timestamp for when the geofence collection was last updated in ISO 8601 format: YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.sssZ
