  • Publication number: 20150348187
    Abstract: Certain implementations may include systems and methods for determining occupancy. According to an example implementation, a method is provided. The method includes receiving identifying information related to occupancy of a target property by a subject. The identifying information may include a name of the subject and an address of the target property. In certain embodiments, the identifying information may include an actual or approximate investigation date to allow a historical evaluation of occupancy at a specific time in the past. The method includes querying one or more public or private databases with the identifying information and receiving, in response to the querying, subject and property information. The method includes determining one or more indicators of occupancy of the target property. The method includes determining, with the one or more computer processors, a score based on the one or more indicators of occupancy; and outputting an indication of the score.

  • Patent number: 9164957
    Abstract: Certain example embodiments of the disclosed technology may include systems and methods for telematics monitoring. An example method is provided that includes receiving, at a mobile computing device, and from a Vehicle Identification Unit (VIU), identification (ID) data representing a first vehicle. The method further includes receiving, by the mobile computing device, sensor data from one or more sensors associated with the mobile computing device. Certain embodiments may further include receiving, at an Operational Measurement Unit (OMU), an operation indication associated with the first vehicle. The OMU may include an operational measurement component configured to advance an operational count in response to receiving the operation indication. Certain example embodiments may include transmitting telematics data by the mobile computing device. In certain embodiments, the telematics data may include least a portion of one or more of the ID data, the sensor data, and/or the operational count data.
