of an animal may lead to the animal moving outside the desired area.
Since many farms border wooded areas, highways or roads, it is then possible
that an animal whose location was not properly reported will wonder
into traffic or another dangerous location.
into traffic or another dangerous location. We specify
the maximum uncertainty in the location of an animal to be
3 feet.
In addition to being precise with the GPS coordinates, the system
must be tolerant of the aforementioned uncertainty. The analysis
of the reported location should prevent the possibility of a collar
not producing a negative stimulus due to a fluctuation of measurement.
\subsubsection{Sound and Electrical Shock}
Simply being aware of the animal's location is insufficient
to properly control its behavior without human intervention.
As such, the collars must be able to create stimuli
that farm animals find unpleasant, effectively training
them to avoid performing actions that are undesirable. The sound
and shock must not only be sufficient to infuence the animals,
but also safe: they should not cause harm or excessive discomfort
to the animal.

\subsubsection{Control Application}
The project must contain a functional mobile application for
the Android platform, capable of interfacing with the collars
in the field. This application should, at minimum, be usable
to adjust the boundaries of the prescribed region and visualize
the locations of individual animals on a map.

@ryan you know more about this than I care to research. \todo{finish this}
\subsubsection{Effective Area}
Because many farms have significant numbers of livestock, and consequently
a large grazing area, it's necessary that the FGC system is functional
at large distances. We require that the sysem is functional at distances
as large as 5 kilometers, which is half of the maximum range of the
LoRa technology. A consequence of this requirement is also that the system
is entirely wireless, since it is not feasible to provide cables or wires
that span the maximum area of 5 kilometers.

\subsubsection{Accessibility of Application}
Because the FGC system is intended to be used by farmers as a replacement
for manual labor, it must be accessible to farmers with knowledge
of the domain, but not necessarily of the inner workings of the FGC implementation.
Thus, the final Android application must be usable, without significant prior training,
by non-technical people from the agricultural industry. On the other hand,
if necessary, the Android application \emph{should} assume domain specific knowledge
in the area of agriculture, since its intended audience is from this field.
