Alert generation based on proximate events identified by source data analytics

Abstract:

A method includes receiving, at a computing device from a social media platform, a first post associated with a first social media account. The method also includes determining, by the computing device, an event category of an event described in the first post. The method further includes determining, by the computing device, an estimated location associated with the event. The method also includes determining, by the computing device, a distance threshold based on the event category. The method further includes determining, by the computing device, whether a location of concern is within the distance threshold of the estimated location. The method also includes generating, by the computing device, an alert based on a determination that the location of concern is within the distance threshold of the estimated location.
