Abstract: A portable cutting apparatus is described. The portable cutting apparatus includes a cutting board having a top surface and a bottom surface. The bottom surface includes sockets configured to receive legs of an elevation system. Each socket is threaded to include an alignment component and teeth. The alignment component biases rotation of the elevation system component during insertion into the socket to enable full insertion. The teeth are configured to mesh with corresponding teeth of the leg and mechanically secure the leg within the socket. The leg is threaded opposite an end configured for insertion into the socket to include a table foot, in a manner that enables individual height adjustment for each leg of the elevation system. The table foot is configured with a hollow cavity that permits articulation of a base of the table foot to adapt to various surfaces when the portable cutting apparatus is deployed.

Abstract: A system, apparatus, computer program product, and method use a convolutional neural network to auto-determine a first floor height (FFH) and a FFH elevation (FFE) of a building. The FFH, and FFE of the building are determined with respect to the terrain or surface of the parcel of land on which the building is located. In turn, by knowing the FFH and/or FFE of the building on the parcel, it is possible to use that information while performing a flood risk assessment to a property without requiring a personal inspection of the parcel by a human.

Abstract: Removable cab toe boxes are described herein to provide increased comfort to an operator while still allowing a cab to be rotated upwards to provide access to equipment below the cab. The removable toe boxes are removably affixed to the cab and, when installed, may provide at least a partial seal to prevent or reduce the amount of dirt or dust entering the cab. When the toe boxes are removed, equipment may move through the space created from the removal of the toe boxes to allow the cab to rotate.

Abstract: A system, apparatus, computer program product, and method automatically, accurately, and reliably detect floor elevations of improvements (e.g., houses) on parcels of land without human inspection of the property. Fusing aspects of image processing, artificial intelligence, and information on adjacent grade points along the footprint of a specific property, the present computer-based system identifies a first floor height (FFH), and first floor elevation (FFE) of the improvement with respect to the terrain or surface of the parcel of land on which the improvement is located. In turn, by knowing the FFH of the improvement on the parcel, it is possible to improve on conventional methods for estimating flood risk to a property without requiring a personal inspection of the parcel by a human.
