A method for performing distributed geographic event processing includes: defining a geographical state system for a universe of locations that includes a model specifying a state transition function and a global aggregation function; providing a local state system for a subset of the universe of locations being defined as a single-machine implementation of the geographical state system; providing a local aggregation function being defined as an implementation of the global aggregation function of the geographical state system; and creating, via a processor, distributed scalable deployments that implement the geographical state system by dividing the universe of locations geographically among different computational nodes and by instantiating on each of the computational nodes an instance of the local state system and the local aggregation function conforming to the subset of the universe of locations assigned to the respective computational node.
