  • Patent number: 11940988
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method of integrating decoupled front-end and back-end processes is disclosed. The method comprises receiving a front-end configuration including validation specifications and a back-end configuration including data validation rules; receiving a data item via forms-based interface associated with the front-end configuration, the data item having been validated based on the validation specifications; mapping the data item to a back-end data object; detecting a conflict between the validation specifications and the validation rules; altering a back-end validation process associated with the back-end data object; causing storing the data item in a database system in association with the back-end data object.

  • Patent number: 11920946
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and non-transitory computer readable media configured to display a geographical map overlaid with a marker layer comprising at least one marker; receive input from a user to change a zoom level of the geographical map from a first map scale to a second map scale; display the geographical map at the second map scale; and overlay the marker layer at the second map scale with the at least one marker at a second marker size. The second marker size is determined based on a correlation between the second map scale and the second marker size, in which (i) the second marker size is increased or decreased in the same direction as the second map scale when the second map scale is within a range from a low threshold point to a high threshold point, and (ii) a ratio change between two adjacent marker sizes is smaller than a ratio change between two corresponding adjacent map scales when the second marker size is outside the range from the low threshold point to the high threshold point.

  • Publication number: 20230342197
    Abstract: Activities related to data analyses are managed in part using task objects representing tasks that need to be performed. In one embodiment, a method comprises: receiving a first request to generate a task object that describes a task; responsive to the first request, generating the task object, the task object being a data structure that comprises values for task object fields that represent attributes of the task; identifying, in a repository of data objects, a particular data object to associate with the task object; determining that a first field of the task object fields corresponds to a second field of the particular data object, the second field of the particular data object having a particular value; and assigning the first field of the task object to the particular value of the corresponding second field. In another embodiment, task objects are associated with geolocation data, and mapped or otherwise presented accordingly.

  • Patent number: 11669513
    Abstract: Software-based technologies for improving structured data collection, presentation, validation, and workflow management processes are disclosed, including the use of interpretable configuration files to define data objects, generate object-level and sub-object-level specifications for a forms-based interface, validation processes and a workflow-based interface. A back-end integration component maps the data objects, validation and workflow processes, and interface specifications to portions of a back-end database system.

  • Patent number: 11580472
    Abstract: A case management system is configured to provide one or more case generation and management functions. As configured, the case management system enables a user to define a workflow, the workflow including one or more states, one or more operations which may be performed at the one or more states, and one or more transitions corresponding to the operations and defining a sequence of the states; to generate and configure a state machine; to receive a workflow identifier to assign to the state machine; and through a command received from a client device, to open and manage a case based on the configuration of the state machine.

  • Patent number: 11494549
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a mobile data analysis system generates mobile reports. In this context, a mobile report represents information collected by a mobile device user and provided as input to a report form displayed by an associated mobile device. The collected information may, for example, include information relating to an activity or event, information relating to a particular person, entity, or location, or any combination thereof. A mobile report may be based on a report template. A report template defines one or more data fields and other property information to be included in a mobile report. A mobile report may be sent to a server to generate one or more data objects, and one or more data object links between the data objects from a first mobile report, the data objects from a second mobile report, and exiting data objects that are maintained at the server.

  • Patent number: 10476975
    Abstract: A computer accesses, from a data repository, profile data of a first entity. The computer determines that a set of information items from the accessed profile data of the first entity are associated with a target activity. The computer determines that the set of information items associated with the target activity includes a subset of information items associated with a second entity. The computer creates or edits, within the data repository, profile data of the second entity based on the subset of information items. The computer provides a digital transmission of at least a portion of the profile data of the second entity.
