Zusammenfassung:A method for generating indices of activity for geographic areas includes: receiving a plurality of activity values, each associated with an entity and geographic location; identifying a geographic grid, the grid including a plurality of geographic areas area of equal size and including zero or at least two geographic locations associated with an activity value; calculating a weight value for each geographic area, the weight value being based on at least (i) a first weight factor applied to each activity value in the respective geographic area and (ii) a second weight factor applied to each activity value associated with a geographic location in an adjacent geographic area; calculating an index value for each geographic area, the index value being based on the calculated weight value and an average weight value for each geographic area; and transmitting at least the calculated index value for one or more geographic areas.
