  • Patent number: 10628465
    Abstract: A method of updating a plurality of databases storing place names includes collecting first, second and third coordinates of addresses including a first, a second and a third place name, respectively, clustering the first, second and third coordinates in a first, a second and a third cluster, respectively, obtaining a base address including the first place name and having base coordinates, assessing the best fit of the base coordinates to the first, second, and third clusters, and based on the two best fit clusters, identifying the second or third place name as an alias place name for the first place name. The method further includes obtaining alias addresses including the alias place name, fuzzy matching the base address to an alias address, and updating first and second databases by linking the alias address in the second database to the base address in the first database.

  • Patent number: 8340830
    Abstract: A solution for managing an asset, such as a movable asset, deployed to a fixed location, is provided. Location and/or power information is periodically acquired for the asset and assessed to determine whether the asset has moved from a desired physical area and/or the power is insufficient to continue with planned operations. In response to either condition, the operation of various devices on the asset can be adjusted to minimize an inferred risk caused by the asset moving outside of the physical area and/or maximize an inferred probability of recovering the asset.
