APPARATUS, METHOD AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR DETERMINING COMPOSITE HAZARD INDEX
First Claim
1. An apparatus for determining a composite hazard index, comprising:
- an interface that receives a first risk score for a first hazard and a second risk score for a second hazard, said first risk score being in a first range of scores and said second risk score being in a second range of scores; and
a processing circuit thatemphasizes at least some scores in at least one of said first range of scores and said second range of scores,normalizes said first risk score with respect to the first range of scores and second range of scores,normalizes said second risk score with respect to the first range of scores and second range of scores, andcombines a normalized first risk score with a normalized second risk score to form at least a component of a composite risk index, whereinsaid first risk score and second risk score being specific to a common property.

Abstract
An apparatus, method and computer program storage device determine a composite hazard index. An interface receives a first risk score for a first hazard and a second risk score for a second hazard. The first risk score is in a first range of scores and the second risk score is in a second range of scores. A processing circuit emphasizes at least some scores in at least one of the first range of scores and the second range of scores. The processing circuit also normalizes the first risk score with respect to the first range of scores and second range of scores, and normalizes the second risk score with respect to the first range of scores and second range of scores. The processing circuit also combines a normalized first risk score with a normalized second risk score to form at least a component of a composite risk index. The first risk score and second risk score being specific to a common property.

32. A non-transitory computer program storage device having instructions that when executed by a processing circuit perform a method for determining a composite hazard index, comprising:
-
receiving a first risk score for a first hazard and a second risk score for a second hazard via an interface, said first risk score being in a first range of scores and said second risk score being in a second range of scores; and emphasizing with the processing circuit at least some scores in at least one of said first range of scores and said second range of scores, normalizing said first risk score with respect to the first range of scores and second range of scores, normalizing said second risk score with respect to the first range of scores and second range of scores, and combining with said processing circuit a normalized first risk score with a normalized second risk score to form at least a component of a composite risk index, wherein said first risk score and second risk score being specific to a common property.
