  • Patent number: 6259972
    Abstract: A method and system for processing and disseminating utility outage information is disclosed. In response to the receipt of new data in the form of events, the data is mapped into a geographic information system and transmitted to selected recipients, or subscribers. Each subscriber has one or more areas of interest that define the information it receives. Each subscriber also has a security classification that further defines the information it may receive as well as the subscriber's ability to trigger events, or update the outage information. The mechanism of the invention employs multiple ways of disseminating the information. A subscriber may request that updated information be sent to the subscriber in response to a subscriber's request. Alternatively, the subscriber may request that updated information be automatically transmitted to the subscriber when updated information is received.
