Thanks
Can you provid a link to where i can find the other hardwarwe
at present the fences are circles of fixed radius so all i need to store is the long/ lat of the location and calculate the distance from the object to the centre of the circle to know if said distance is greater than the radius( outside the circle) or less than the radius ( inside the circle )
So each record only needs 2 columns radius and Lon/lay co ordinates of the centre of the circle
