1. A method for influencing the likelihood of a future event occurring in or away from a specified geospatial area, comprising the steps of: establishing a geospatial boundary representative of an area of interest (AOI); establishing at least one layer imposed upon the boundary, the layer being indicative of geospatial characteristics of at least one modifiable variable of interest; receiving geospatial information pertaining to one or more past events of the event type, including location information for the one or more past events; determining a likelihood associating the event type's relative proximity to the modifiable variable of interest; determining whether the modifiable variable of interest is capable of influencing the event type; and upon determining that the modifiable variable of interest is capable of influencing the event type, initiating a real-world modification to the variable of interest.
