Temporal condition — particular time or period of time

only at a particular time, or within a particular period of time, as specified by the one or more secondary user devices:

Claim requirement

Technical interpretation — not claim language

A second, independent condition operates alongside the spatial condition. Delivery is confined to a specified time or period, and the claim recites that specification as coming from the consumer device side.

Publicly disclosed Woosmap functionality

Woosmap expressly describes an isochrone as a time-based geofence. Its SDK monitors estimated time of arrival between the user’s location and a destination, and a time-based radius may cause the SDK to trigger an event when the user is sufficiently near the monitored destination in travel-time terms. Commercially, Woosmap describes support for distance-based geofences, time-based geofences, ETA and isochrone polygons and recurrent geofences.

Woosmap Geofencing — SDK concepts documentation

Definition of geofencing as monitoring of a geographic area to recognise device presence within a boundary; enter/exit boundary-crossing events; geofences representing a store, competitor store, neighbourhood or other point of interest; automatically generated store geofences; and isochrone (time-based) geofences monitored against estimated time of arrival.

Woosmap Distance API — Isochrone feature

Computation of isochrone polygons representing areas reachable within a given travel time, supporting time-based rather than purely distance-based catchment logic.

Woosmap Geofencing — commercial use case page

Commercial description of geofencing triggering events on device entry or exit of a monitored region; contextualisation of push notifications at the right time and in the right place; support for distance-based, time-based, ETA/isochrone and recurrent geofences; and retail, geomarketing and offer-targeting use cases including tailoring by where users live or work.

Technical correspondence

Temporal logic is a first-class monitoring mode in the Woosmap architecture, operating together with the location condition rather than as a separate analytics feature. That combination is the point of interest, because the granted claim architecture is directed to conditions operating in combination.

Requires legal / deployment confirmation

Matters for further review

ETA and travel-time logic is technically significant but should not automatically be treated as legally identical to every possible construction of the claimed “particular time” or “particular period of time” requirement — particularly the recitation that the period is as specified by the secondary user device.
