20130204826 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR IDENTIFICATION OF SIMILAR EVENTS USING DATA AND CHARACTERISTICS - A similar event algorithm is used to compare a user specified event to a large historical binary gridded database of historical data, and identify similar events within the database. The user specified event input data is converted into a binary data format. The historical binary gridded database also is in a binary data format, such that the data is machine-readable. A similar event dataset is generated with similar events ranked according to the algorithm. | 08-08-2013 |
