Method and apparatus for increasing the density of data surrounding an event
First Claim
1. A computer program product tangibly stored on a non-transitory computer readable hardware storage device, the computer program product for controlling operation of sensors at a physical premises, the computer program product comprising instructions to cause a processor to:
- receive a message corresponding to a prediction of an impending insurable event at the physical premises, wherein the prediction is based on analysis performed by one or more unsupervised learning models on sensor information collected from one or more sensors deployed at the premises, and wherein the prediction includes a period of time the predicted insurable event is likely to occur;
process the received message according to an algorithm that is selected in accordance with the predicted insurable event, the algorithm producing one or more commands to modify operation of one or more specific sensors of a plurality of sensor devices that collect the sensor information at the physical premises;
send the commands that modify the operation of the one or more specific sensors to the one or more specific sensors at the physical premises prior to the period of time;
collect the sensor information from the plurality of sensor devices deployed at the premises; and
store the sensor information in a persistent storage system.

Abstract
Techniques for controlling operation of sensors at a physical premises are described. The techniques process received messages corresponding to a prediction of an impending event and produce commands that modify operation of one or more specific sensors at the physical premises, send the commands that modify the operation of the one or more sensor devices at the physical premises at a period of time prior to a likely occurrence of the predicted insurable event, collect sensor information from the plurality of sensor devices deployed at the premises, and store the sensor information in a remote persistent storage system.
