Method for tracking and analysis of a mobile entity. In some embodiments a multi-dimensional geophysical area is divided into a first layer of zones each encompassing a contiguous portion of the geophysical area and having at least one rule. Geoposition values from a sensor associated with a mobile entity are accumulated in a memory. The accumulated geoposition values are used to identify an associated zone from the first layer of zones in which the mobile entity is located and the at least one rule assigned to the associated zone is applied. A second layer zone is subsequently generated in response to an input signal. The second layer zone overlays at least a portion of one zone in the first layer and expands over time. An alarm limit is output in response to a subsequently accumulated geoposition value from the sensor indicating the mobile entity is in the second layer zone.
