Automatic zone boundary adjustment
Systems and techniques are described for pet monitoring during unattended delivery. In some implementations, a monitoring system monitors a property includes sensors located throughout the property and generates sensor data. A monitor control unit receives a first indication that a resident of the property will be receiving a delivery during a delivery time. Based on the sensor data and during the delivery time, the monitor control unit determines that a pet, that resides at the property, has been restrained. The monitor control unit provides, to a delivery person, a second indication that the pet at the property has been restrained.
1. A method comprising:
detecting, by a monitoring system that uses one or more rules for analysis of sensor data for a zone with one or more first boundaries that define a portion of a property, an event at the property;
determining whether the event satisfies a zone boundary adjustment criteria;
in response to determining that the event does not satisfy the zone boundary adjustment criteria, determining to skip creating one or more updated boundaries for the zone by adjusting the one or more first boundaries; and
after determining to skip creating the one or more updated boundaries for the zone:

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining whether the event satisfies the zone boundary adjustment criteria comprises determining whether the event has a threshold likelihood of crossing one of the one or more first boundaries for the zone.
6. The method of claim 5 , comprising determining whether a vehicle has the threshold likelihood of crossing one of the one or more first boundaries for the zone.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining whether the event satisfies the zone boundary adjustment criteria comprises determining whether the event occurred within a threshold distance to the zone.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining whether the event satisfies the zone boundary adjustment criteria comprises determining whether the event includes a predetermined object.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein determining whether the event includes the predetermined object comprises determining whether the event includes a known person.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining whether the event satisfies the zone boundary adjustment criteria comprises determining whether the event includes a predetermined object type.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein determining whether the event includes the predetermined object type comprises determining whether the event likely includes a delivery person.
12. A system comprising one or more computers and one or more storage devices on which are stored instructions that are operable, when executed by the one or more computers, to cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:
detecting, by a monitoring system that uses one or more rules for analysis of sensor data for a zone with one or more first boundaries that define a portion of a property, an event at the property;
determining whether the event satisfies a zone boundary adjustment criteria;
in response to determining that the event does not satisfy the zone boundary adjustment criteria, determining to skip creating one or more updated boundaries for the zone by adjusting the one or more first boundaries; and
after determining to skip creating the one or more updated boundaries for the zone:
receiving sensor data for the zone; and
analyzing, using the one or more first boundaries and the one or more rules, the sensor data for the zone to determine whether to perform an action for the zone.
13. The system of claim 12 , the operations comprising performing the action for the zone using a result of the analysis of the sensor data for the zone that used the one or more first boundaries and the one or more rules.
14. The system of claim 12 , wherein:
receiving the sensor data for the zone comprises receiving one or more images that each depict at least a portion of the zone defined by the one or more first boundaries; and
analyzing the sensor data comprises analyzing, using video analytics, the one or more images to determine whether to perform an action for the zone.
15. The system of claim 12 , wherein analyzing the sensor data comprises:
determining, using the sensor data, a location of a pet at the property;
determining, using the one or more first boundaries, whether the location of the pet is within the one or more first boundaries; and
determining, using the one or more rules, to perform the action defined by at least one of the one or more rules in response to determining that the location of the pet is not within the one or more first boundaries.
