Patent ID: 6859416

Claim:
A geophysical data monitoring apparatus comprising: a geophysical data input means for inputting atmospheric temperature data of a plurality of locations as geophysical data of the plurality of locations via a data input device; an atmospheric-temperature-data/position-information correlating section for performing processing that adds position information of one of the plurality of locations to the atmospheric temperature data of the one of the plurality of locations, and correlates the atmospheric temperature data of the one of the plurality of locations to the position information of the one of the plurality of locations; an atmospheric-temperature comparing section that compares an atmospheric temperature of the one of the plurality of locations at an arbitrary time after sunset with an expected nighttime temperature of the one of the plurality of locations; and an output means for adding a processing result of the atmospheric-temperature data/position-information correlating section to a processing result of the atmospheric-temperature comparing section, and for outputting a result thereof to an output device.
