Patents by Inventor Matthew M. Klawonn

Matthew M. Klawonn has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10969518
    Abstract: An aspect includes aggregating a plurality of disparate datasets into a document store with semi-structured attributes, with each document in the document store specifying a geospatial location and a value of an environmental parameter at the geospatial location. The document store includes a plurality of documents specifying a plurality of different geo spatial locations and different environmental parameters, and the environmental parameters include a climatological parameter. Niche model layers are generated for the different environmental parameters at the geospatial locations. The niche models include a model layer for each of the different environmental parameters. A future geospatial location of a species is predicted based on environmental attributes of the species and contents of the niche model layers. The predicted future geospatial location of the species overlaid on a geographic map is output to a requestor.

  • Patent number: 10635702
    Abstract: An aspect includes aggregating a plurality of disparate datasets into a document store with semi-structured attributes that includes a plurality of documents specifying a plurality of different geo spatial locations and a plurality of different environmental parameters. Niche model layers are generated for the environmental parameters at the geospatial locations based on contents of the document store. The niche model layers include a model layer for each of the different environmental parameters. An additional niche model layer is created for a derived environmental parameter at the geospatial locations based at least in part on one of the previously generated niche model layers. A future geospatial location of a species is predicted based on environmental attributes of the species and contents of at least a subset of the niche model layers. The predicted future geospatial location of the species overlaid on a geographic map is output.
