Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting, extracting, and categorizing structure data from aerial imagery following a major weather event are provided. The system processes digital images and weather data to automatically detect, extract, and categorize structure data following a major weather event. After receiving an indication of a region of interest (“ROI”) from a user, the system retrieves weather mapping data for the ROI and retrieves information related to attributes of structures within the ROI from a machine learning subsystem. The system then cross-references the property data, the weather data, and the structure attributes and assigns a risk rating to the structures within the ROI. Finally, the system generates and delivers a data package to the user.

Abstract: Systems and methods for rapidly developing annotated computer models of structures and properties is provided. The system generates three-dimensional (3D) models of structures and property using a wide variety of digital imagery, and/or can process existing 3D models created by other systems. The system processes the 3D models to automatically identify candidate objects within the 3D models that may be suitable for annotation, such as roof faces, chimneys, windows, gutters, etc., using computer vision techniques to automatically identify such objects. Once the candidate objects have been identified, the system automatically generates user interface screens which gather relevant information related to the candidate objects, so as to rapidly obtain, associate, and store annotation information related to the candidate objects.

Abstract: Compositions and methods for controlling pests are disclosed. The compositions can be electrostatically charged, can be attractive for translocation by the social insects into nesting, tunneling, and/or gathering structures of the social insects, or both. Kits comprising the compositions and a powder delivery device operable to electrostatically charge a pest control composition during delivery are also disclosed.

Abstract: A system and method for generating models from digital images in an interactive environment comprising a memory and a processor in communication with the memory. The processor captures or derives metadata for one or more digital images. The processor derives transforms from the metadata to align the digital images with one or more three-dimensional (“3D”) models of objects/structures represented in the digital image. The processor generates an interactive environment which allows a user to view a contextual model of each of the objects/structures in two dimensional (“2D”) and 3D views.

Abstract: A reusable bundling device for wrapping and securing bundles of cable, rope, hose, electrical cords and other elongated members. The bundling device includes a flexible strap having one surface covered with hook members and an opposed second surface covered with a plurality of loop members. The hook members are releasably engagable with the loop members to encircle and retain the bundle. The first end of the flexible strap is removably attachable to a portion of the cord. Further, the bundling device is color coded to facilitate the identification of useful information pertaining to the cord and to rematch the strap once removed from the cord.

Abstract: A method and apparatus includes the coiling of an elongated article into a number of equal circumference coils through the provision of indicators spaced along a length of the article. Aligning the indicators of one set of indicators, a person can coil the elongated article into a first number of equal circumference coils and aligning the indicators of another set of indicators, a person can coil the elongated article into a second number of equal circumference coils. The first and second number of coils not being equal, i.e. the first number of coils may be four total coils and the second number of coils may be two total coils. The circumferences of the second number of coils being greater than the circumferences of the first number of coils, thereby allowing a person to choose how small or how large of a circumference of coil to create.

Abstract: A cord organizer is provided. The cord organizer is used for storing, handling and transporting cords or the like, such as electrical extension cords. The cord organizer includes a base for coiling a cord around by forming successive loops of the cord about the base. A flexible strap is provide for securing the coiled cord onto the cord organizer and to secure the individual loops of the coil to prevent the loops from becoming entangled during transportation or storage.
