Abstract

The present invention extends to systems and methods for notifying entities of relevant events. A boundary geometry, a user event truthfulness preference, a first event type, a second event type, and an area are combined into a rule formula. The first event type and a first event truthfulness associated with a detected event are accessed. The second event type and a second event truthfulness associated with another detected event are accessed. It is determined that the first event type and the second event type occurred in combination in the area within a boundary defined by the boundary geometry and that the first event truthfulness and the second event truthfulness both satisfy the user event truthfulness preference. An entity is automatically electronically notified in accordance with notification preferences that the rule formula was satisfied.
