Patent number: 10796149Abstract: Methods and systems for automating the management and processing of roof damage analysis. In some embodiments image data associated with damaged roofs is collected and automatically analyzed by a computing device. In some embodiments, the image data is modified automatically to include descriptive metadata and visual indicia marking potential areas of damage. In one embodiment, the systems and methods include a remote computing device receiving visual data associated with one or more roofs. In one embodiment, insurance company specific weightings are determined and applied to received information to determine a type and extent of damage to the associated roof. In one embodiment, results of the methods and systems may be used to automatically generate a settlement estimate or supplement additional information in the estimate generation process.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 2019Date of Patent: October 6, 2020Assignee: Accurence, Inc.Inventors: Zachary Labrie, Benjamin Zamora
