Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An approach that detects locations of hazardous conditions within an infrastructure is provided. This approach uses satellite imagery, GIS data, automatic image processing, and predictive modeling to determine the location of the hazards automatically, thus optimizing infrastructure management. Specifically, a hazard detection tool provides this capability. The hazard detection tool comprises a detection component configured to: receive visual media containing asset location data about a set of physical assets, and hazard location data about potential hazards within a vicinity of each of the set of physical assets. The detection component further receives graphical information system (GIS) data containing asset location data about each of the set of physical assets. The hazard detection tool further comprises an analysis component configured to: analyze the visual media to determine if a hazardous condition exists for each of the set of physical assets; and apply the GIS data to the visual media to determine a location of hazardous conditions within the infrastructure.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method for detecting locations of hazardous conditions within an infrastructure, comprising: receiving graphical information system (GIS) data containing asset location data about each of a plurality of physical assets; analyzing visual media data to determine a hazardous condition for each of the plurality of physical assets; applying the GIS data to the visual media to determine a location of the hazardous conditions; generating a plurality of visu…
