Abstract: A method of generating customizable goal representation is disclosed. A request from a user to view a goal representation is received. A flexible goal ontology is accessed that comprises one or more goal entities, one or more goal relationships between the goal entities, or one or more goal properties, the one or more goal properties including one or more metadata attributes relating to the one or more goal entities. A set of mapping rules is obtained that defines mappings between one or more goals. The set of mapping rules is evaluated to assemble a customized goal representation tailored to the user. The customized goal representation is updated based on a revaluation of the mapping rules affected by changes to the one or more goal entities, the one or more goal relationships, or the one or more properties.

Abstract: A system and method for crop health change monitoring uses first and second crop images, before and after an event (e.g. severe weather) to detect impact of the event. Using differences in vegetation index values between the images, a vegetation index difference image is calculated. A structural similarity index measurement calculation quantifies differences between the images. Using a change layer comprising magnitude values representing a magnitude of change between the images by adding absolute difference values derived from the vegetation index difference image and boost values derived from the structural similarity index measurement, a hybrid crop health change image is generated that is indicative of crop health change by converting the magnitude values of the change layer into positive change values and negative change values according to corresponding ones of the difference values of the vegetation index difference image being positive or negative.

Abstract: A data collection, display, and report generation platform has a first input interface configured to present a learning module comprising a series of questions and answers on a plurality of successive question/answer screens comprising a plurality of radio buttons, at least one of the radio buttons configured to accept both a first input action and a subsequent second input action, each providing a different visual indication. The first and second input action each indicate a different confidence level of a learner's answer. A display dashboard displays a plurality of data visualizations of metrics of misinformation and struggle of plurality of learners based on a plurality of answers collected through the first input interface, and comprises one or more bar graph displays, one or more heat map displays, and one or more sorting tools configured to alter the one or more bar graph displays or one or more heat map displays.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for a multi-chambered container. In one example, a container comprising a first chamber is positioned between a liquid chamber and a second chamber, a first seal is positioned between the first chamber and the liquid chamber, and a second seal is positioned between the second chamber and the first chamber. By rotating a first external ring of the container that is positioned between the liquid chamber and the first chamber of the container a first liquid tight seal is opened to enable communication between the liquid chamber and the first chamber. The first external ring may be positioned at a first end of the liquid chamber that is opposite a second end of the liquid chamber that includes a drinking opening.

Abstract: A system and method for detecting changes in an agricultural field uses a time series of target images of the agricultural field in which a vegetation index value is calculated for each target image. A target trend line is calculated from the time series of the vegetation index values. A time series of candidate images of one or more candidate fields having one or more attributes that correspond to one or more attributes of the agricultural field is also acquired in which an expected trend line can be determined from calculated vegetation index values representative of respective candidate images. An alert is generated in response to a deviation of the target trend line from the expected trend line that meets alert criteria.
