# Deviation from Routine
**Entity class:** Geospatial And Movement Layer concept
**Deviation from Routine** is an observation or analytic method used to identify departures, recurring structure, or candidate signals for further assessment. Deviation from Routine matters because the analytic object is a changing, partially observed system rather than a finished dossier.

The page records capability and analytic function. Any claim of a named operational deployment remains subject to the [[wiki/Counterterrorism Predictive Graph Evidence Ladder|evidence ladder]]. The analytic state should distinguish ground truth, observed evidence, inferred state, and predicted state.
