MUMBAI, India, Nov. 2 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641126100 A) filed by Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham on October 22, 2026, for Incident Hotspot Mapping System With Source-Weighted Provisional Event Verification.
Inventors include Satheendran, Sumith; Kennady, Megha; and P. , Vipinlal.
The application for the patent was published on October 30, 2026, under issue no. 44/2026.
Abstract: The present disclosure provides an incident hotspot mapping system (100) and a method (400) to map incident hotspots from unevenly reliable reports. A record- linkage engine (116) of a server (106) replaces a provisional event (206) from a pre-registration source (104) with a verified event (216). The replacement occurs upon a match (212) with a verified-record source (102) inside a time window (210) and a spatial radius (208) scaled to positional uncertainty (204). A weight calibrator (118) weights the provisional event (206) by a confirmation ratio (224) of its spatial cell (302), and a spatial analysis engine (120) recomputes a local spatial-association statistic (310) for only receiving and adjoining cells. Unlike conventional mapping that awaits registration or double counts early reports, this approach keeps a hotspot layer (314) current with bounded computation for policing.
