FACILITATING DEMOGRAPHIC ASSESSMENT OF INFORMATION USING TARGETED LOCATION OVERSAMPLING
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- determining, by a device comprising a processor, a set of mobile devices communicatively coupled to a base station device associated with a first defined region, wherein the first defined region is relative to a defined location of interest;
transmitting, by the device, a set of instructions to the set of mobile devices that instruct the set of mobile devices to power on respective location information components configured to transmit location information; and
determining, by the device, which ones of the set of mobile devices are within a second defined region based on respective location information received from the set of mobile devices.

Abstract
Demographic assessment of information is facilitated using targeted location oversampling. In one example, a device determines mobile devices communicatively coupled to a base station device associated with a first defined region, wherein the first defined region is relative to a defined location of interest. The device can transmit a set of instructions to the mobile devices that instruct the mobile devices to power on respective location information components configured to transmit location information. The respective location information can be configured to transmit respective global positioning system information for the mobile devices. The device can also determine which ones of the mobile devices are within a second defined region based on respective location information received from the mobile devices.

15. A computer-readable storage device storing computer-executable instructions that, in response to execution, cause a first device comprising a processor to perform operations, comprising:
-
determining a first region associated with an event of interest; and identifying ones of a first set of mobile devices within the first region within a defined time period based on location information received from the first set of mobile devices, wherein the defined time period overlaps another time period for the event of interest, and wherein the location information is received in response to a signal controlling respective location information components of the first set of mobile devices to activate. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
