Claim 0:
1. A method for calculating a predicted future location of a location tracking device, comprising:
detecting, by a wireless communications device, a breach of a geofence made by the location tracking device;
receiving, at the wireless communications device, data representing a state of the location tracking device, the state of the location tracking device comprising at least a current location of the location tracking device and a velocity of the location tracking device;
receiving, at the wireless communications device from a server, an update to a ping rate for the location tracking device, wherein the update to the ping rate is based at least in part on the predicted future location of the location tracking device determined based on the data representing the state of the location tracking device and a route of the location tracking device, a route of a receiver device associated with the location tracking device, or both; and
updating, by the wireless communications device, the ping rate for the location tracking device based on the update to the ping rate.
