Abstract: A computerized method for analyzing a zoning ordinance comprises converting the text into a raw text format; parsing the raw text format to establish a hierarchical structure; building a network representation of the text of the zoning ordinance; collecting examples of portions the zoning ordinance to be analyzed; building a language model of each subsection of the text of the zoning ordinance; running the language model on each subsection of the text of the zoning ordinance; correlating references to previously translated sections of the text of the zoning ordinance; outputting text of the zoning ordinance as a data dictionary with sections interpreted as machine readable code; and outputting simplified language sentences from the data dictionary. An assembled document comprising at least one of the machine readable code and the simplified language sentences is provided. Associated images can be included in the document. A programmed computer and a medium including computer code for practicing the method.

Abstract: Given a parcel of land that is regulated by city zoning rules, the system and method described uses a combination of rule based coded and machine learning to parametrically create geometry for the maximum or optimal buildable envelope with the least amount of regulation.
