1. A computerized method for detecting changes in events, comprising the steps of:
- establishing and storing an original geospatial signature for a given event type based on a determined likelihood associating the event type'"'"'s relative proximity to a variable of interest (VOI) within a geospatial area of interest (AOI);
receiving geospatial information pertaining to one or more subsequent events of the given event type within the AOI, including location information for the one or more subsequent events;
classifying the received information as part of the original signature or as an outlier; and
upon the received information meeting or exceeding a pre-determined threshold for classification as an outlier, establishing and storing a reassessed signature for the given event type.

Abstract
Changes in event, threat and result patterns assist in forecasting subsequent occurrences. The present invention derives signature for event-types based on a comparison of actual event data with pre-established representational surfaces. The surfaces represent functional measurements and analysis associated with elements of the geospatial boundary being considered. Comparing newly obtained event, result and threat data with previously stored signatures facilitates change detection.

8. A computerized method for detecting changes in techniques, tactics or procedures associated with an event, comprising the steps of:
-
establishing and storing an original geospatial signature for a given event type based on a determined likelihood associating the event type'"'"'s relative proximity to a variable of interest within a geospatial area of interest (AOI), wherein the original signature can be depicted as a technique, tactic, procedure or combination thereof;
receiving geospatial information pertaining to one or more subsequent events of the given event type within the AOI, including location information for the one or more subsequent events;
establishing and storing a reassessed signature for the given event type based on the received geospatial information;
comparing the reassessed signature to the original signature; and
depicting changes in the reassessed signature as a change in technique, tactic, procedure or a combination thereof. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10)
