1. A computer-assisted analytical engine for facilitating location-based risk, threat or opportunity assessments, comprising:
- an interface component for receiving instructions to provide a requested risk, threat or opportunity assessment pertaining to a requested location;
a model control bus in communication with the interface component for selecting one or more topical models associated with the requested assessment;
a framework for executing the one or more selected models against a database of geospatial information pertaining to the requested assessment in order to determine an associated risk, threat or opportunity response assessment for the requested location.

Abstract
A system, method and framework incorporates one or more analytical engines and sensitivity models to process data and project real-time or near-real-time threats, risks, vulnerabilities and/or opportunities statically or continuously. Response assessments can be reflected on a graphical interface so as to provide a consolidated depiction of threats, risks, vulnerabilities and/or opportunities. Response assessments can also be reflected as one or more signal controls to a physical device.

11. A computer-assisted method for providing global consolidated risk and threat assessments, comprising the steps of:
-
receiving a communication from a user through a communication device of a particular geo-fence area for assessing risk;
combining, using a computer, two or more models for analyzing data associated with the geo-fence area and determining a quantifiable risk, threat or opportunity assessment associated with the geo-fence area; and
upon the quantifiable risk assessment meeting a threshold, notifying the user through the communication device.

12. A system for providing a real-time or near real-time, continuously updated, location-based risk, threat or opportunity assessment, comprising:
-
a computer-based model data bus accessing a database of geospatial information;
a computer-based health model component interacting with the model data bus to assess one or more health risks, threats or opportunities pertaining to one or more geographical locations;
a computer-based sociological model component interacting with the model data bus to assess one or more sociological risks, threats or opportunities pertaining to one or more geographical locations;
a computer-based natural hazard model component interacting with the model data bus to assess one or more natural hazard risks, threats or opportunities pertaining to one or more geographical locations;
a computer-based political model component interacting with the model data bus to assess one or more political risks, threats or opportunities pertaining to one or more geographical locations;
a computer-based economic model component interacting with the model data bus to assess one or economic more risks, threats or opportunities pertaining to one or more geographical locations; and
an interface in communication with the model data bus for reflecting a threat, risk or opportunity assessment for a location requested by a user of the interface. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A method for providing real-time, computer-based representation of situational awareness in connection with a threat, risk, vulnerability or opportunity, comprising the steps of:
-
receiving, by a client interface, a situational assessment related to an area of interest (AOI) one or more client assets, client resources, client objectives or client risk tolerances;
receiving, by a spatial data aggregator component, geospatial data in connection with the AOI;
receiving, by an event data aggregator component, event data in connection with the AOI;
processing, by a data processor, the data received by the spatial data aggregator and the event data aggregator;
receiving, by a global grid component, the data processed by the data processor;
providing an analytical engine with a forecasting component for assessing the likelihood of future events of an event type pertaining to the situational assessment, with the forecasting component including a signature derivation component for deriving a geospatial signature pattern for past stored events of the assessed event type within the AOI; and
providing the analytical engine with programming for issuing a response assessment. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
