Abstract: Methods and systems for evaluating the quality of a geospatial data set are provided. Regions of a data set may be selected for review based on statistical methods and a distribution of map features in the data set. Based on errors identified in the selected regions, one or more quality scores may be generated for the data set. Quality scores may be applied toward assessing the utility of the data set against an intended use. Quality scores may be modified in response to an indication that certain feature classes are not relevant for an intended use of the data set. Information associated with the review of a data set may be tracked and stored.

Abstract: Graphical user interfaces (GUIs) for reviewing and evaluating geospatial data are provided. A GUI may allow a user to configure a geospatial data quality assessment system by grouping feature classes into one or more categories and selecting target quality scores for the overall data set and/or one or more categories. A GUI may display one or more review areas for a user to review and allow a user to generate one or more error calls in the review areas. A GUI may display one or more scores associated with a geospatial data set. A GUI may allow a user to modify to which category one or more feature classes are assigned. In response to an adjustment of one or more feature classes between categories, the user interfaces may display one or more updated quality scores associated with one or more categories.

Abstract: Methods for forming bonded assemblies using metal inverse opal and cap structures are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method for forming a bonded assembly includes positioning a substrate against a polymer support that is porous, depositing a metal onto and within the polymer support, disposing a cap layer to the polymer support opposite of the substrate to form a bottom electrode, and removing the polymer support from between the substrate and the cap layer to form a metal inverse opal structure disposed therebetween.

Abstract: A reflector element and a method for manufacturing a reflector element are disclosed. In an embodiment the reflector element includes a plastic substrate and a silver layer arranged on the plastic substrate. The reflector element further includes a first barrier layer arranged on the silver layer, wherein the barrier layer has an at least 15 nm-thick oxide layer and a second barrier layer arranged on the first barrier layer, wherein the barrier layer includes siloxane, and wherein a thickness of the second barrier layer is at least 250 nm and at most 450 nm.

Abstract: A method of forming a shaped abrasive particle includes forming a first mixture and a second mixture in a single forming process into an integral precursor shaped abrasive particle, wherein the first mixture has a different composition than a composition of the second mixture.

Abstract: Audit performance systems and methods can be used to provide objective assessment of the performance of claim administrators. Data from audits performed by one or more insurance broker consultants can be input into the audit performance system, and analyzed, to generate reports that compare the performance of a selected claim administrator to an industry standard level of performance or to one or more other claim administrators.
