Abstract
A method for organizing event data by identifying a primary timeline containing event data, extracting a first timestamp from a first item of the primary timeline, setting a radius around the first timestamp, identifying a second timestamp within the radius, determining whether the second timestamp is already in a wrinkle timeline, and, if not, incorporating the second timestamp into the wrinkle timeline. Event data associated with the first item may be marked and emphasized in the wrinkle timeline. The system may also create one or more indexes of the event data.
Claims22
A method of organizing event data using a computer system, the method comprising the steps of:
- identifying a primary timeline containing event data including a first timestamp;
- choosing a radius for the first timestamp;
- searching, via the computer system, for at least one subset of the event data within the radius;
- and
- generating, via the computer system, a first wrinkle timeline incorporating the at least one subset of the event data.
