Abstract: A computer implemented method or system including a map conversion toolkit and a map Population toolkit. The map conversion toolkit allows one to quickly trace the layout of a floor plan, generating a file (e.g., GeoJSON file) that can be rendered in two dimensions (2D) or three dimensions (3D) using web tools such as Mapbox. The map population toolkit takes the scan (e.g., 3D scan) of a room in the building (taken from an RGB-D camera), and, through a semi- automatic process, generates individual objects, which are correctly dimensioned and positioned in the (e.g., GeoJSON) representation of the building. In another example, a computer implemented method for diagraming a space comprises obtaining a layout of the space; and annotating or decorating the layout with meaningful labels that are translatable to glanceable visual signals or audio signals.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to technology for establishing communication between a remote device and a virtual machine on a computing node of the cloud-based services via the distributed network. The cloud-based services include multiple operating systems and one or more applications. In response to receiving an instruction from the remote device the virtual machine is accessed, where the virtual machine is associated with at least one of a user of the remote device and the remote device. When directed by an instruction from the remote device, the virtual machine identifies one of the operating systems in which to execute the one or more applications and transmits results, based on execution of the one or more applications by the virtual machine, to the remote device via the distributed network.
