Geolocation Domain

Domain Summary​

The Geolocation domain manages location data, mapping services, and routing capabilities within the healthcare system. It handles the creation, validation, and management of geographic information, including client addresses, routing between locations, and optimization of travel paths.

This domain enables healthcare providers to efficiently plan routes for care workers, locate clients accurately, calculate travel times between locations, and optimize service delivery based on geographic constraints. It serves as a critical component for operational efficiency and service planning within the healthcare platform.

Architectural Overview​

The Geolocation domain follows the standard domain architecture pattern.

Entities​

While the specific entities are not fully visible in the codebase exploration, the domain appears to work with:

  1. Geolocation Data - Information about geographic coordinates and addresses
  2. Routing Information - Data about routes, travel times, and distances
  3. Client Location Data - Geographic information specific to clients
  4. Response Models - Structures for handling geolocation service responses

Key Operations​

Location Management​

  • Store and retrieve geographic coordinates
  • Validate address information
  • Convert addresses to coordinates (geocoding)
  • Manage location data for clients and facilities

Routing Services​

  • Calculate routes between locations
  • Determine travel times and distances
  • Optimize route sequences
  • Handle routing constraints and preferences

Client Geolocation​

  • Manage client address and location information
  • Track client position changes
  • Support client location searches
  • Validate client geographic data

Integration with External Services​

  • Connect with mapping and routing APIs
  • Process geolocation service responses
  • Handle geolocation errors and exceptions
  • Cache geographic data for performance

Integration with Other Domains​

The Geolocation domain integrates with several other domains:

  1. Client Domain - Clients have location information for service delivery
  2. Tour Planning Domain - Tours require routing between client locations
  3. Residential Park Domain - Residential parks have geographic boundaries
  4. Employee Domain - Employees travel between locations
  5. Repair Domain - Repair services require location information
