  • Publication number: 20220276058
    Abstract: A device may receive an architectural floor plan of an interior of a building, and may process the architectural floor plan, with a vectorization model, to generate a vectorized floor plan of polygons. The device may process the vectorized floor plan, with a convex hull model, to create convex hull polygons around the polygons of the vectorized floor plan, and may reduce a quantity of vertices associated with the convex hull polygons to generate simplified convex hull polygons. The device may generate, based on the simplified convex hull polygons, one of a visibility graph that identifies potential paths through the interior of the building, or a walking path network through the interior. The device may process the one of the visibility graph or the walking path network, with a pathfinding model, to identify paths through the interior of the building, and may perform actions based on the identified paths.

  • Patent number: 10893384
    Abstract: An exemplary geolocation data management system identifies a passive monitoring pattern for tracking a geolocation of a mobile device and tracks the geolocation of the mobile device as the mobile device traverses a path during a time period. The system tracks the geolocation by determining geolocations in accordance with the identified passive monitoring pattern and by generating corresponding geolocation records for the mobile device. Based on a contiguous subset of these geolocation records, the system determines that the mobile device dwelled at a particular geolocation for a time interval and generates a dwell record for the mobile device. The system further presents, by way of a user interface, a map indicating the path traversed by the mobile device during the time period. The map shows a geolocation record and the dwell record to be visually differentiable from one another. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.
