Platform Aurora:GeoStudio®

Aurora™ · First SaaS Application

Aurora:GeoStudio®

The first-ever immersive SaaS platform for collecting, processing, and analyzing location data from smart devices — observing over 17 billion unique geolocation data points every day from 4.4 billion SDK and 6.3 billion RTB mobile advertising IDs (MAIDs) globally, and able to ingest anything with a latitude and longitude.

SaaS platform API analytic feed Deployable to secure enclaves
The Aurora:GeoStudio® workspace — population-dynamics charts and record counts, a day/hour activity heatmap, an entity-relationship network graph linking device aliases to networks, and a live geospatial map with area-of-interest density clusters and a GeoTools analysis panel.
The immersive workspace. Population dynamics and record counts, a day/hour activity heatmap, an entity-relationship network graph, and a live geospatial map with area-of-interest density and GeoTools — analyzed side by side. Illustrative interface; sample records obscured.
Proprietary, not adtech

Location intelligence from device metadata — not advertising exhaust.

Aurora:GeoStudio® does not rely on an adtech model. It draws on proprietary geolocation metadata from smart-device applications to resolve Internal Device ID, network, country, brand, model, location timeline, IP connection / ISP, and other demographics — then turns that into movement patterns, recurring locations, density change, and co-location events. Because it accepts any latitude/longitude-tagged source, the same environment fuses smart-device data with AIS maritime, flight, telecommunications, and passive-sensor data.

Data Foundation

One environment, every location source.

GeoStudio ingests proprietary device feeds at scale and enriches them with any spatially-referenced data — then makes the whole picture explorable.

Platform Capabilities

A comprehensive suite for location-based analysis.

Location timeline

Track the movement of a device over time to reveal activity patterns, points of origin, and trends across the full history.

Activity density & hotspots

Measure device-activity density across an area and surface the hotspots that indicate significant interest or movement.

Activity demographics

Where available, layer demographic context onto device activity for a richer read of who is present and when.

Device intelligence

Detailed device attributes — unique ID, network connection, model, and dwell presence — for precise identification.

Data enrichment

Enhance raw signal with hashed email, demographics, mobile-app activity, and Mobile Advertising ID (MAID) analysis.

IP / ISP analysis

Internet-protocol and service-provider intelligence to support network analysis, attribution, and vulnerability assessment.

Areas of interest (AOIs)

Automatically identify clusters of significant activity — potential home or work addresses, meeting places, and co-traveler activity.

Passive-sensor integration

Incorporate passive sensors to sharpen device identification within designated zones of interest for real-time presence data.

The GeoAPIs

Three APIs that turn raw pings into investigative workflows.

GeoStudio's analytics are exposed as three composable GeoAPIs. Each returns plain-language analytic labels designed to translate raw location data into prioritized leads and a defensible pattern of life. Together they form a pipeline: capture the area, canvass the event, then run down the device.

The Net · Collection

Aurora:GeoCapture™

The primary collection net. Captures every device observed in a defined area of interest — the initial seed list that feeds the rest of the pipeline.

Feeds GeoRunDown® & GeoCanvass®

Cast a wide net over a location and time window, then hand the resulting device list downstream for filtering and pattern-of-life resolution.

record_count
The number of geolocations recorded for a device. A single ping suggests a drive-by; many pings suggest the person stopped or loitered — filter low counts out when hunting a prolonged act.
overlimit
True when an area exceeds its 10,000-device capacity. The query is too noisy — shrink the radius or narrow the date/time window and re-run.
nrDevicesOutput / nrAreasOutput
Total devices and active areas returned. Indicates crowd size — large outputs are candidates for a GeoCanvass® filter or a cross-reference against known databases.
The Filter · Triage

Aurora:GeoCanvass®

Analyzes the devices surrounding a specific event of interest and ranks them by behavioral relevance — separating the few that matter from the crowd.

Elevates leads to GeoRunDown®

Apply precise time-and-space analytic filters to a captured population so analysts work the highest-priority devices first.

inMultipleAreas
Device present in more than one area. Presence at multiple connected scenes is a higher-priority lead — suggestive of a pattern rather than a bystander.
eventDateTime
Devices within ±4 hours of the event. Physically present during the critical window — a potential suspect, victim, or eyewitness.
eventHourAndDay
Devices recurring at the same hour and weekday as the event. May indicate routine behavior — a commuter or delivery driver rather than an actor.
frequentlyInArea
Seen on more than 25% of days. A fixture of the area — a resident, employee, or regular; useful for elimination or insider-knowledge leads.
infrequentlyInArea
Seen on under 1% of days. An anomaly — an outsider who may have traveled specifically for the event.
The Anchor · Pattern of Life

Aurora:GeoRunDown®

Determines the top recurring "bed-down" locations of an anonymized device — anchoring a device of interest to its likely home, work, and routine.

Resolves the pattern of life

Develop an individual device into a structured, defensible pattern of life — the anchor points and temporal rhythm that support traditional investigative methods.

usage
Share of the device's time (0–1) spent at a location. A high score suggests a primary residence or workplace — a likely place to locate the device's owner.
rank
Location rank from 1 to N. Rank 1 is the highest-confidence anchor point — where to prioritize investigative resources.
daysActive / hoursActive
Total days and hours the device was observed active. High activity points to a primary device; sparse activity can suggest a burner.
nrDaysOfWeek / nrHoursOfDay
Temporal breakdown at a location. Five weekdays for eight hours reads as a workplace; seven days overnight reads as a residence.
spatialLimit
True when locations outside licensed spatial limits were removed. Flags a privacy-shielded jurisdiction — a known blind spot to cover with traditional methods.

Delivery & Governance

Deployed to your environment, bounded by design.

GeoStudio integrates as Software-as-a-Service, as an API analytic feed into existing systems, or deployed inside secured environments and enclaves. Spatial limits are enforced in the data itself, and an upgrade path to Aurora:IaaS® fuses GeoStudio with HUMINT, SIGINT, and OSINT for full intelligence fusion.

SaaS & API

Use the immersive platform directly, or consume analytic labels as an API feed wired into your existing investigative and operational systems.

Secure enclaves

Deployable into secured environments for sensitive operational use, keeping data and analysis within your accreditation boundary.

Spatial limits

Licensed spatial limits are enforced at the data layer — out-of-bounds locations are removed and clearly flagged via the spatialLimit label.

Put Aurora:GeoStudio® to work on a real mission problem.

Aurora:GeoStudio® and the GeoAPIs are available to authorized government, defense, and security organizations. Access begins with a defined mission problem.
