@tomayac this is under 'one-off' at the moment. Would you also consider this as a possibility under 'continuous' because of audio guides? Or would this be addressed through more complex geofencing?

Since the number of allowed geofences is limited in practice, it's not possible in the general case to draw a geofence around every point of interest (like an artwork in a museum). It would work for festival stages, etc. For more fine-grained scenarios, background geolocation access would be needed.

@tomayac yes, so I think the Cultural spaces falls into that category more than the 'One-off' category. What do you think?
