Geo-proximity routing
Geo-proximity, on the other hand, will only determine the longitude and latitude of the user. The response will send the address of the origin that is closest in geographical terms. We can also shape the response by giving different origins different biases in the geo-proximity group. The bigger the bias is, the further the reach of each origin. This approach can be very useful when geo-location would always point the users to a random origin within the country. For example, in the US, there are four regions where we can have four origins. When one of the origins in one of the regions has a larger footprint, we can increase the geo-proximity bias so that it can serve a proportionally bigger group from a wider geographical ...
