Multipath effects, which for sound are huge in an environment with large flat surfaces, could create phantom origin spots at the fringes of the covered area.

- SV_BubbleTime 5y agoSo if your point is it’s too complex and variable for automatic processing; how does adding a human arbitrarily changing classification and location going to improve accuracy? Unless it’s the shotspotter tech put there shooting people, seems the company is very successful bullshit either technically or ethically.
- jcims 5y agoIf there was solid external evidence of when a shooting occurred (eg gps timestamped video of the event) I could see them doing it purely for calibration purposes. Clearly those adjustments should not be admitted as evidence in a court case. ShotSpotter just needs to take the 'L' and they will have to prosecute without (or admit whatever was originally recorded as corroborating evidence).
