collimarco has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/geofencing-api: == Any plans to continue this in the future? Any alternatives? == Is this spec completely abandoned? Are there any plans to implement this in the future? It would be great to have such a future together with the Push API. At Pushpad many customers ask similar futures to trigger notifications based on the user current location. Otherwise, are there any alternatives to track the user location? I know about the Geolocation API, but the problem is that it doesn't provide a way to track the user location in background (not only when the user is visiting the website). I mean, it would be great to have a combination of the Geolocation API with service workers to constantly monitor the area where the user is located. For example it would be useful to have a service worker event like `onlocationchange` that can send the new coordinates (obtained with the Geolocation API) to the server.
