Nikaza serves as a bridge between the physical and digital worlds. Nikaza Location Services Framework is the connective tissue that links the physical places to in-venue mobile experiences. For developers wanting to incorporate location-based context and personalize in-app experiences, the Nikaza Location Services Framework may be used to add location context and tracking to your apps with a few lines of code.
The Nikaza Places database has millions of pre-defined locations that are categorized based on the location type which can be subscribed to.
Each location has a category, sub-category and location name. Example: Arts & Entertainment, Movie Theatre, Acme Cinema.

A geofence is used to specify a custom geographical location, such as a coffee shop, an auto dealership or a retail outlet. If you want to monitor user activity in a certain location, you can create a geofence around it to be notified when an user enters or exits the geofence. You can deliver contextually relevant experience to your users this way.
With support for unlimited geofences, the Nikaza Location Services Framework is more powerful than the native Android geofencing.

The Nikaza Location Services Framework scans for beacons (iBeacon and Eddystone). Beacons provide higher accuracy than geofences and can be used to identify custom geographical location, such as a coffee shop, an auto dealership or a retail outlet and specific zones such as entrance or cash counter within the geographical location.

The Nikaza Location Services Framework scans for WiFi access points. WiFi provides better accuracy than geofences and can be used to identify custom geographical location, such as a coffee shop, an auto dealership or a retail outlet and specific zones such as entrance or cash counter within the geographical location.

Nikaza Context Hub backend has a collection of location and context information associated with these locations. The server call to retrieve location context and associated location metadata will be triggered when the a Geofence, Beacon or WiFi event occurs. Developers can subscribe to context metadata via callbacks.
