1. A system for binning spatially relevant data, the system comprising:
- at least one transmission device operable to transmit spatially relevant data;
at least one server communicatively coupled to said at least one transmission device, said at least one server operable to receive said spatially relevant data; and
an instruction set executable by a processor-based device for generating a single spatial index value from location information correspond to said spatially relevant data.

Abstract
Systems and methods for binning spatially relevant data and corresponding geographical location information are disclosed. In a preferred embodiment, the system comprises at least one transmission device operable to transmit spatially relevant data and corresponding location information for the data to a server. Preferably, an instruction set is executable by a processor-based device (e.g., the transmission device or the server) for generating a single spatial index value for the location information. Accordingly, the spatially relevant data may be indexed using its corresponding spatial index value.

10. A method of generating a single spatial index corresponding to a geographical comprising the steps of:
-
receiving location information identifying a discrete location;
extracting at least one individual location variable from said location information;
resolving into a desired spatial resolution said at least one individual location variable; and
generating from said resolved at least one individual location variable a single value representative of a region determined by said spatial resolution and encompassing said discrete location. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A method for indexing spatially relevant data comprising the steps of:
-
receiving spatially relevant data and corresponding geographical information that identifies a discrete geographical location to which said spatially relevant data relates; and
generating a single spatial index having a desired spatial resolution that identifies said discrete geographical location to which said spatially relevant data relates as being with a particular geographical region of said spatial resolution. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)
