Abstract
The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for detecting an event. A listening area is monitored based on detecting a potential event from a normalized signal, based on characteristics of a normalized signal, or based on a signal pattern anomaly. A geo cell database is queried with search terms derived from one or more normalized signals. A geo cell subset is returned from the geo cell database. The listening area is formed from the geo cells included in the geo cell subset and monitored for additional signals. An event is detected and/or validated (or rejected) based on the additional normalized signal.
