Threat monitoring for crowd environments with swarm analytics

摘要

A system enables threat monitoring in a school or other “crowd” environment. The premises where the crowd environment will exist includes one or more nodes that can gather realtime location data for multiple mobile devices. The system includes off-premises processing such as a data center, or an on-premises server, or both. The processing receives the realtime location data from the one or more nodes and performs swarm analytics processing on the data. The swarm analytics processing can determine if movement patterns indicated by the location data indicate a likely threat condition for the crowd. The system notifies a first responder of the threat condition. The system can optionally notify the users of the mobile devices as well.
