Comparison of multi-dimensional datasets
Methods, systems, and apparatuses for comparing multi-dimensional datasets are provided. A multi-dimensional dataset comparison includes receiving a plurality of datasets, each including a plurality of coordinates, wherein a subset of coordinates defines a geo-fence. For a coordinate within a geo-fence of one of the plurality of datasets, determining analogous coordinates in each of the other datasets, the analogous coordinates defining a coordinate input set, and performing in parallel an operation on the coordinate input set to determine whether an entry is present at a coordinate of the coordinate input set.

determining, for a coordinate within a geo-fence of one of the plurality of datasets, analogous coordinates in each of the other plurality of datasets, the analogous coordinates defining a reduced coordinate input set; and
performing, by a processor, in parallel an operation on the reduced coordinate input set to determine whether an entry is present at a coordinate of the reduced coordinate input set, wherein the operation defines a pre-processing calculation for determining an entity associated with an entry present at the coordinate of the reduced coordinate input set.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the operation is at least one of a logical or mathematical operation.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the geo-fence is based on one of a spatial, facility-based, event-based, multi-dimensional and geographical parameter.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising dynamically updating a status parameter associated with the geo-fence.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the status parameter is one of a time, location or motion-based parameter.

determining an entity associated with an entry present at a coordinate of the reduced coordinate input set; and
determining information associated with the entity.
7. An apparatus comprising:
an interface for receiving a plurality of datasets, each including a plurality of coordinates, wherein a subset of coordinates defines a geo-fence;
a processor; and
a computer-readable medium having computer program instructions stored thereon, which, when executed on the processor, cause the processor to perform a method comprising:
determining, for a coordinate within a geo-fence of one of the plurality of datasets, analogous coordinates in each of the plurality of datasets, the analogous coordinates defining a reduced coordinate input set; and
performing in parallel an operation on the reduced coordinate input set to determine whether an entry is present at a coordinate of the reduced coordinate input set, wherein the operation defines a pre-processing calculation for determining an entity associated with an entry present at the coordinate of the reduced coordinate input set.
8. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the operation is at least one of a logical or mathematical operation.
9. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the geo-fence is based on one of a spatial, facility-based, event-based, multi-dimensional and geographical parameter.

11. The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the status parameter is one of a time, location or motion-based parameter.
12. The apparatus of claim 7 , further comprising the processor for:
determining an entity associated with an entry present at a coordinate of the reduced coordinate input set; and
determining information associated with the entity.
13. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer program instructions stored thereon, which, when executed on a processor, cause the processor to perform a method comprising:
receiving a plurality of datasets, each including a plurality of coordinates, wherein a subset of coordinates defines a geo-fence;
determining, for a coordinate within a geo-fence of one of the plurality of datasets, analogous coordinates in each of the plurality of datasets, the analogous coordinates defining a reduced coordinate input set; and
performing in parallel an operation on the reduced coordinate input set to determine whether an entry is present at a coordinate of the reduced coordinate input set, wherein the operation defines a pre-processing calculation for determining an entity associated with an entry present at the coordinate of the reduced coordinate input set.
14. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the operation is at least one of a logical or mathematical operation.
15. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the geo-fence is based on one of a spatial, facility-based, event-based, multi-dimensional and geographical parameter.
16. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , further comprising computer program instructions for dynamically updating a status parameter associated with the geo-fence.
17. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the status parameter is one of a time, location or motion-based parameter.
