  • Patent number: 11968595
    Abstract: A method of determining a physical location for an address. The method includes receiving from a first global positioning system on a vehicle a first set of global positioning data indicative of a vehicle location. The method may also receive from a second global positioning system on a portable electronic device a second set of global positioning data indicative of a portable electronic device location. The method may also receive a set of location metadata associated with a picture. The method determines a residence location from the first set of global positioning data, the second set of global positioning data, or the set of location metadata. The method then associates the physical location to the address.

  • Patent number: 11371845
    Abstract: A geo-analytical program is integrated into a customer relationship management (CRM) solution. Via the geo-analytical program, users are able to define layer configuration settings for a layer for plotting on a map-based GUI. Layer configuration settings for a respective layer comprise an indication of a data object type serving as a base object type for the respective layer. A method involves receiving from a user user-defined configuration settings for a first layer, electronically receiving, at a geospatial computer system, geospatial data for a plurality of connected devices; electronically receiving, at the geo-analytical program from the geospatial computer system, real-time geospatial data for the plurality of connected devices; and utilizing, by the geo-analytical program, the user-defined layer configuration settings for the first layer to plot the first layer on the map-based GUI based on the received real-time geospatial data for the plurality of connected devices.

  • Publication number: 20200167800
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes the step of providing a graphical user interface (GUI) that is accessible by users within a customer relationship management (CRM) solution. The GUI enables the users to define rules with each rule including one or more conditions and one or more associated actions to be taken upon the meeting of the one or more conditions. The method further includes receiving from a user via the GUI one or more user-defined rules; storing in non-transitory computer readable medium each received user-defined rule for later retrieval and processing; electronically receiving geospatial data acquired by a plurality of connected devices; identifying stored rules applicable to the received data; retrieving the identified rules; applying the rules to the received data; and taking the one or more actions of each retrieved rule upon the one or more conditions of the retrieved rule being met based on the received data.
