It would be great if you could create a geolocation and geofence module. My business is a home service across the U.K. so my service providers only cover certain regions which may overlap across the U.K. The current location module is not suitable or user friendly for this because then I have to make each region a location which makes a long list for the customer to choose at the frontend.
The ideal solution is having a geolocation and geofence functionality. So the service providers input their geofence on their profiles for the regions the cover for each service. Then the flow for the customer is that they input their geolocation first (eg postcode or locateme) And then the services that have the location inside its geofence from the service providers are shown, then the customer is shown the available appointment slots dependent on the service providers hours availability.
i agree location system can limit the distance of bookings, calculate travel time between jobs and also can assign an area to each user login.
my company is going national and this feature would be perfect
My company is going national and I canβt scale with the current location module because I canβt just list all the locations. We need actual geolocation and geofencing functionality, especially for businesses who do home visits or site visits

For example, see this solution https://jungleworks.com/yelo/home-services/
I will need to find a solution if you canβt create one because I canβt scale my business without having this functionality

We truly need location support. Im my case, customers can book to have their test in one of our location.

Please consider that locations can be time zone dependent
