Patent number: 11886445Abstract: An example method of performing searches by comparing regions includes identifying a search point contained in geo-located data. The search point is nearest in distance to a query location. A search region associated with the search point is determined. The search region includes neighbor points contained in the geo-located data that are nearest the search point. Centroids corresponding respectively to the plurality of neighbor points of the search region are determined. The centroids of the search region are compared to other centroids corresponding to other regions of the geo-located data. The number of other centroids that match with the plurality of centroids are counted, and the counts are placed in descending order, to list the other regions having the highest similarity first. An ordered list of the other regions is generated based on their respective similarities to the query region.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2021Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AS REPRESENTED BY THE SECRETARY OF THE ARMYInventors: Andrew P Strelzoff, Ashley N Abraham, Althea C Henslee, Haley R Dozier, Mark A Chappell

Publication number: 20220101446Abstract: A mobile application for purchasing vehicular insurance without the need for manual data entry via a mobile device keyboard is disclosed. The mobile application is configured to image driver's licenses and vehicle barcodes to collect relevant driver and vehicular information. Other relevant data is either collected from correlated third-party databases or user input via voice recognition or user-friendly graphical user interface screens. Collected information is transmitted to one or more insurers and one or more quotes are displayed for consideration by the applicant. The mobile application may further comprise payment services and insurance agency point of sale services. The mobile application further provides an interactive digital insurance identification card to serve as a platform and dashboard for readily accessing services associated with the insurance policy, particularly when in an accident, when roadside services are required, and when a lower cost updated policy is available to the insured party.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 11, 2021Publication date: March 31, 2022Inventor: James Mark Chappell

Patent number: 11210441Abstract: The present invention is a computer modeling system for creating a comprehensive environmental impact model. The system performs a series of novel functions to reflect the impact of multiple emissions on all species of interest within an environment at designated concentration levels. The system can be further utilized as a repository to update environmental data received from scientific researchers and to update existing models accordingly. The system integrates new data and updates calculations to create increasingly complex, comprehensive and reliable predictive models for users, which include US and foreign entities charged with developing emissions standards.Type: GrantFiled: January 13, 2020Date of Patent: December 28, 2021Assignee: UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AS REPRESENTED BY THE SECRETARY OF THE ARMYInventors: Mark A Chappell, Michael L Mayo, Jonathon A.

Patent number: 10387589Abstract: The present invention is a computer apparatus for creating an environmental impact model. The apparatus includes emission objects representing single or compound emissions. These objects include emission properties and processing function for updating these properties, and a species impact model which represents the impact of an emission on a species. The model includes value pairs of a quantified species impact value linked to an emissions concentration value. A computer system includes the emission objects on a server, a data interface for receiving emission properties, and an instantiation processor for creating more objects. Extrapolation and update processors allow statistical extrapolation of value pairs and updating emission properties.Type: GrantFiled: September 22, 2016Date of Patent: August 20, 2019Assignee: UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AS REPRESENTED BY THE SECRETARY OF THE ARMYInventor: Mark A.
