1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
determining that a mobile device has entered a group beacon region based on the mobile device exceeding a first amount of time within a camp on range of each beacon of a plurality of radio frequency (RF) beacons present in the group beacon region, wherein each beacon of the plurality of RF beacons is associated with a target;
receiving, in response to determining that the mobile device has entered the group beacon region, by the mobile device, a plurality of reference pointers communicated from each beacon of the plurality of RF beacons;
determining, based on the plurality of reference pointers, that each beacon of the plurality of RF beacons have a common context;
identifying a set of group information items associated with the common context;
predicting, based on a received signal strength for each beacon of the plurality of RF beacons, a relative distance of the mobile device with the beacon;
selecting, based on the predicted relative distances, a beacon of the plurality of RF beacons in the group beacon region; and
outputting a set of information items corresponding to the target associated with the beacon.
