First Claim
Patent Images
1. In a processing system a method comprising:
- receiving measurement data;
processing the measurement data to create or update at least two models and one or more characteristics associated with each model based on the measurement data, where each of the models is a representation of a real-world thing;
processing the characteristics associated with the models to form one or more relationships between the models when the characteristics are such that two or more of the models are regarded as being related according to one or more relationship criteria;
processing the relationships to generate one or more alerts when one or more of the relationships meet one or more alert criteria.

Abstract
A system (10) for receiving measurement data wherein there is a processing means of the measurement data to create or update at least two models (28) where each model is a representation of a real-world object, event or phenomenon. There is a means for processing the characteristics (32) of the models to establish relationships (34) between the models and to generate alarms (40) when the relationships meet a certain criteria.

2. A method comprising:
-
categorising the received measurement data as related to one or more models, wherein each of the one or more models is a representation of a real-world thing, wherein one or more of the models have one or more associated characteristics that are based on the related measurement data; forming one or more relationships between the models when the characteristics are such that two or more of the models are regarded as related according to one or more relationship criteria; generating one or more alerts when one or more of the relationships meet one or more alert criteria. - View Dependent Claims (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A system comprising:
-
an input for receiving measurement data; a model processor for creating one or more models based on the received measurements data and for maintaining one or more characteristics of the models based on the measurement data, wherein each of the one or more models is a representation of a real-world thing; a relationship processor for forming one or more relationships between the models when one or more of the characteristics are such that two or more of the models are regarded as being related according to one or more relationship criteria; an alert processor for generating one or more alerts when one or more of the relationships meet one or more alert criteria. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)

21. A method comprising:
-
receiving measurement data; processing the measurement data to be categorised as being related to one or more models of a real-world thing, wherein the one or more related models are associated with a geographical characteristic based on the measurement data, wherein each geographic characteristic comprises an area or volume of relevance and a geographic location of the area or volume or relevance; processing the geographical characteristics associated with the models to determine whether any of the areas or volumes of relevance intersect or are within a specified proximity; generating an alert when there is an intersection or the volumes of relevance are determined to be within the proximity.

22. A system comprising:
-
a receiver of measurement data; a processor for processing the measurement data to be categorised as being related to one or more models of a real-world object, event or phenomenon, wherein the one or more related models are associated with a geographical characteristic based on the measurement data, wherein each geographic characteristic comprises an area or volume of relevance and a geographic location of the area or volume or relevance; a processor for processing the geographical characteristics associated with the models to determine whether any of the areas or volumes of relevance intersect or are within a specified proximity; a processor for generating an alert when there is an intersection or the volumes of relevance are determined to be within the proximity.

23. A system comprising:
-
an object creator which triggers creation of an object when input data meets object creation criteria, wherein the objects are at least two models of a real-world things, at least one relationship between the models and an alert generator; a processor module for each of the created objects, each processor module receives data, processes the data including applying criteria to the received data, and stores the processed data; wherein the received data of the model objects are measurement data, the criteria is one or more rules that reflect that the measurement data is relevant to a characteristic of the real-world thing represented by the model and the stored data is characteristics of the model based on the measurement data; wherein the received data of the relationship object is the model characteristics, the criteria is one or more rules that reflect that the real-world thing of one model has an influence over, relevance to or is related to the real-world thing of another model and the stored data is relationship properties based on the relevant model characteristics, wherein the received data of the alert generator object is the relationship properties, the criteria is one or more rules that reflect the relationship between the modelled real world things is significant and the stored data is an alert based on the relationship properties.

24. A method comprising:
-
triggering creation of an object when input data meets object creation criteria, wherein the objects are at least two models of a real-world things, at least one relationship between the models and an alert generator; for each of the created objects, receiving data, processing the data including applying criteria to the received data, and storing the processed data; wherein the received data of the model objects are measurement data, the criteria is one or more rules that reflect that the measurement data is relevant to a characteristic of the real-world thing represented by the model and the stored data is characteristics of the model based on the measurement data; wherein the received data of the relationship object is the model characteristics, the criteria is one or more rules that reflect that the real-world thing of one model has an influence over, relevance to or is related to the real-world thing of another model and the stored data is relationship properties based on the relevant model characteristics, wherein the received data of the alert generator object is the relationship properties, the criteria is one or more rules that reflect the relationship between the modelled real world things is significant and the stored data is an alert based on the relationship properties.
