Untriggered searches for gravitational-wave bursts have so far primarily been all-sky counting experiments. Using the worldwide network of gravitational-wave interferometers, it has become possible to go beyond this approach by using directional reconstruction methods to search for deviations from the expected background as a function of sky ocation. By searching for multiple gravitational wave triggers, this approach may allow us to probe for weaker burst signals than has been possible in previous searches. This could reveal directional correlations with known or new point sources, as well as correlations with ensembles of galactic or extragalactic sources. In this presentation we use simulated LIGO and Virgo data to demonstrate such a direction-based method of searching for bursts of gravitational waves. )
