# Location Tracker

Location Tracker in AWS is part of the Amazon Location Service. It lets you create and manage trackers that record the position of devices or assets over time. Using a tracker, you can store, retrieve, and analyze location updates, enabling use cases like asset tracking, fleet management, and geofencing.

| kms_key_enable_geospatial_queries | core | bool       | Enables GeospatialQueries for a tracker that uses a Amazon Web Services KMS customer managed key. This parameter is only used if you are using a KMS customer managed key. If you wish to encrypt your data using your own KMS customer managed key, then the Bounding Polygon Queries feature will be disabled by default. This is because by using this feature, a representation of your device positions will not be encrypted using the your KMS managed key. The exact device position, however; is still encrypted using your managed key. You can choose to opt-in to the Bounding Polygon Quseries feature. This is done by setting the KmsKeyEnableGeospatialQueries parameter to true when creating or updating a Tracker. |
