Summary: | A device and method for wide area surveillance of a geographic region includes identifying a search space associated with a geographic region having a plurality of sub-regions. The search space is divided into a plurality of search cells and observation data is collected for each of the plurality of search cells based on a scan of the geographic region. An event generation rate is calculated for each of the search cells based on the collected observation data. One or more of the sub-regions are identified as a region(s) of interest based on the calculated event generation rates. A coverage pattern is estimated for each of the sub-regions and a desired revisit rate is calculated for the region of interest based on the estimated coverage pattern. The desired revisit rate is then output for scanning the region of interest. |
