## Claims

### Claim 1

A server comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one computer-readable storage medium coupled to the at least one processor having stored thereon instructions which, when executed by the at least one processor, causes the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
receiving monitoring data related to events from multiple, different monitored locations;
aggregating the received monitoring data in geographic regions to enable detection of events in the geographic regions;
tracking crime incident data in the geographic regions;
based on aggregation of the received monitoring data and tracking of the crime incident data, identifying regionalized monitoring and crime incident data associated with a particular geographic region; and
based on the identification of the regionalized monitoring and crime incident data associated with the particular geographic region, taking action for monitored locations in the particular geographic region.
