4. Geofencing in research SIGSPATIAL Cup 2013 (Managed by UMN’s DMlab) Problem: Input: A set of possibly overlapping regions (polygons with and without interior rings) and a set of points. Output: Pair each input point with one or more of the input polygons such that a given spatial condition is satisfied between the polygon and the point Sponsors
