This is a universal problem, and one which is actually more easily solved by using routing IDs instead of geographical data. Any change to a device location translates to a modification at only the server-side, which then re-associates the IDs with the new geographical area. Maybe some clarification is needed: - If I want to target EDXL distribution to specific devices that will re-route content, what do I use? - Is targetarea restricted to the incident target area only and not the routing target area(s)? - Does recipient define the viewer of the content, or a device that may not be the viewer of the content (Hopefully not both).
