First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a server over a network from a computer, input that specifies an incident at a facility including a name of a person associated with the incident at the facility;
automatically triggering, by the server in response to receiving the name of the person, a search to determine if the person has been involved in one or more other incidents; and

Abstract
Various embodiments of the present invention are related to incident tracking systems and methods. A method allows for receiving input that specifies an incident at a facility, defining a search area adjacent to a position of the incident, and displaying one or more other incidents that occurred at the facility within the search area. A further method allows for dynamically plotting, each time a search area is changed on a map of a facility and an associated date range is indicated, positions on the map within the search area so as to indicate where incidents have occurred at the facility within the date range. Another method allows for receiving input that specifies a name of a person associated with an incident at a facility, and automatically flagging the person as being of interest if the person has been involved in one or more other incidents at the facility.
