Abstract

The present invention extends to systems and methods for notifying entities of relevant events. An entity defines a rule formula that is triggered when one or more detected events match the rule formula including defining one or more event types and one or more locations types. A boundary associated with a selected location type is also received along with a monitoring area. The received elements are combined into the rule formula notification preferences are associated with the defined rule. One or more events are detected and then compared to the rule formula to determine if the combination of one or more event types occurred within the boundary of the one or more location types within the area.
