  • Patent number: 11966430
    Abstract: An example method of determining geolocations of composite entities based on information retrieved from heterogeneous data sources comprises: identifying, by a computer system, an association of a first object and a second object with a composite object; receiving, from a first data source associated with the first object by an ontology, a first dataset including a first data item specifying a first time identifier and a first geolocation associated with the first object; receiving, from a second data source associated with the second object by the ontology, a second dataset including a second data item specifying a second time identifier and a second geolocation associated with the second object; and determining, by applying a rule set associated with the ontology to the first dataset and the second dataset, a geolocation of the composite object and a corresponding time identifier.

    Abstract: System and method for control area visualization according to certain embodiments. For example, a method includes: receiving object data from a plurality of data sources; identifying a plurality of first objects associated with a first group based at least in part on the object data, each first object of the plurality of first objects being associated with a geospatial location and a buffer area; determining a first control area associated with the first group based at least in part on the geospatial location and the buffer area of each first object of the plurality of first objects; and causing a presentation of the first control area on a display.

  • Publication number: 20240087263
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a method comprises obtaining a video stream of a portion of a geographic area, the video stream comprising a plurality of video frames, each of the plurality of video frames captured at a respective first time. Contextual metadata is obtained, the contextual metadata associated with one or more objects located in the portion of the geographic area at a second time, the second time being before each of the respective first times. The contextual metadata is inserted into one or more of the plurality of video frames, thereby causing the contextual metadata associated with the one or more objects to be overlaid on one or more corresponding portions of the one or more of the plurality of video frames.

  • Patent number: 11920946
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and non-transitory computer readable media configured to display a geographical map overlaid with a marker layer comprising at least one marker; receive input from a user to change a zoom level of the geographical map from a first map scale to a second map scale; display the geographical map at the second map scale; and overlay the marker layer at the second map scale with the at least one marker at a second marker size. The second marker size is determined based on a correlation between the second map scale and the second marker size, in which (i) the second marker size is increased or decreased in the same direction as the second map scale when the second map scale is within a range from a low threshold point to a high threshold point, and (ii) a ratio change between two adjacent marker sizes is smaller than a ratio change between two corresponding adjacent map scales when the second marker size is outside the range from the low threshold point to the high threshold point.

  • Publication number: 20230368519
    Abstract: Described herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media for validating or rejecting automated detections of an entity being tracked within an environment in order to generate a track representative of a travel path of the entity within the environment. The automated detections of the entity may be generated by an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm. The track may represent a travel path of the tracked entity across a set of image frames. The track may contain one or more tracklets, where each tracklet includes a set of validated detections of the entity across a subset of the set of image frames and excludes any rejected detections of the entity. Each tracklet may also contain one or more user-provided detections in scenarios in which the tracked entity is observed or otherwise known to be present in an image frame but automated detection of the entity did not occur.

  • Patent number: 11809682
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media are provided for visually presenting geospatial information. An information request for an area may be received. The area may include one or more predefined regions. The predefined region(s) may be subdivided into one or more levels of predefined sub-regions. Information for the area may be accessed. The information for the area may include region information for the predefined region(s) or sub-region information for the predefined sub-regions. A response to the information request may be determined based on the region information or the sub-region information. The response may enable a visual presentation of (1) the information for the area, and (2) one or more geographical boundaries corresponding to the area.

  • Publication number: 20230350561
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for improved graphical user interfaces. The system enables multiple separate applications, each of which may typically be in their own separate window or tab, to be interacted within a single window, such as a tab of a web browser application. The main window includes smaller sub-windows that can correspond to a distinct application with its own graphical user interface. A large sub-window within the main window is opened for the primary application where the user is currently interacting with a graphical user interface of the primary application. The user then is able to switch between applications (all within the same main window) and applications that are no longer being used can be minimized in smaller sub-windows off to the side of the primary sub-window. The system enables a user to drag and drop an item from one sub-window to another sub-window. Some of the interactions between the windows and data transformations are stored and can be visually presented in a graph.

  • Patent number: 11803532
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for integrated data analysis. At least one object that is responsive to a first search query is determined. The object is stored in an object model that is managed by a first computing platform, and the at least one object is associated with one or more properties. One or more data sets that are responsive to a second search query are determined. The data sets are managed by a second computing platform. The one or more data sets are determined related to the at least one object. The at least one object is updated to include at least one property that references at least one analysis that relies on the one or more data sets.

  • Patent number: 11720713
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for sharing maps in a collaborative environment using classification-based access control. The generation of and dissemination of maps and/or data within such maps can be governed by classification-based access control, where a user's classification level can determine whether or not maps and/or data within those maps can be seen. In scenarios whether a plurality of users wishes to collaborate on the same map, the systems and methods provided herein generate multiple versions or views of the same map in accordance with different classification levels. In this way, users with different classification levels can nevertheless see the same map and engage in collaborations regarding the same map, while maintaining control of sensitive data.

  • Publication number: 20230244858
    Abstract: Computer implemented systems and methods are disclosed for annotating and linking electronic documents. In accordance with some embodiments, annotations assigned to source electronic documents are received and snippets are generated from the received annotations. The generated snippets are aggregated into clusters, which are used to generate an electronic document. Links between the snippets and their respective source documents may be generated and embedded in the generated electronic document.
