System and method for creating an area of landscaping
11641813 · 2023-05-09 ·

A system and method for implementing a landscaping project on a plot of land. The system creates a flexible landscaping template that is physically placed over the land that is to be landscaped. The flexible landscaping template has graphics printed on its surface that identify a variety of plants, indicate planting positions, and identify a variety of soil conditioning products the plants. The graphics on the flexible landscaping template can also indicate the placement of water management conduits and electrical conduits, the placement of hardscaping products and/or the placement of construction foundations. The flexible landscaping template is generated using input from a user and environmental criteria for the land to be landscaped. Once the flexible landscaping template is generated, the materials identified on the flexible landscaping template are gathered into a shipping module by a supplier company.

MAP SERVER AND MAP DISTRIBUTION METHOD
20230204386 · 2023-06-29 ·

A map server includes a difficult place setting unit, a distribution map generation unit, and a distribution processing unit. The difficult place setting unit identifies, based on a cancel point report from a vehicle, a difficult place which is a point where vehicle control involving a driving support or automatic driving is highly likely cancelled. The distribution map generation unit generates, as a map of a difficult place area related to the difficult place, distribution maps respectively including map information denser than a map of a normal area that is an area other than the difficult place area. The distribution maps of the normal area, which does not include detailed map information, contributes to a reduction of data amount in an entire map distribution scheme, when, for example, distributing map data over the network.

Decals are repositionable, adhering pieces representing a plurality of furniture, fixtures, finishes, construction elements and architectural details for the use in Architectural, Interior, Landscape and/or Engineering Planning and Design. The Hand Drawn and/or Computer Drafted Graphics are Industry Standard and/or Custom Shapes represented as Individual or Grouped designs, specific to an Architectural, Engineering or Metric Scale. Printed on a Master Sheet and Die Cut Shapes result in individual, pliant pieces that peel away from the Master Sheet for application to the End User's Documents or Material, for Design Layout, Notation, Product Purchase Tracking and/or Diagramming Furniture and/or Fixture Installations. Printed in Monotone or Full Color, the durable yet disposable Decals utilize uncoated or coated, clear or opaque, repositionable adhesive paper and/or clear repositionable polypropylene.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CREATING PRECISION AGRICULTURE DATA MAPS
20170372642 · 2017-12-28 ·

A method for creating precision agriculture data maps utlilizing one or more hand-carried or vehicle transported mobile sensors that feed various types of agriculture-related soil and plant measurements into a mobile processing device that has software that automatically plots the data geospatially and contours the data readings in color-coded or shaded gradients that can be displayed in layers and that can be saved and compared over time.

Signature based map caching

Systems, methods, and computing devices for building, operating and using map systems with signature-based map caches are disclosed. Based on the desired map properties included in a formatted map request, a map signature can be generated. The map signature can be used to access a signature based map cache to determine whether a map with identical map properties has been previously generated and stored in cache or otherwise available for retrieval. If the map signature exists in the map cache, the corresponding map can be delivered to a map client. If the map signature does not exist in the map cache, then a map can be generated or rendered based on the map properties in the map request. Once the map is generated, it can be saved to the map cache along with associated map signature for future retrieval.

Management device, construction management system, and position information management method
11687852 · 2023-06-27 · ·

A management device includes a ticket issuance unit that issues a ticket indicating work related to a construction site, a position information acquisition unit that acquires position information of a communication terminal acquiring the ticket, and an output unit that outputs the position information of the communication terminal selecting the ticket regarding the same construction site among the position information acquired by the position information acquisition unit.

Information processing apparatus and information processing method
11688283 · 2023-06-27 · ·

The present technology relates to an information processing apparatus and an information processing method enabling a vehicle to readily pass an oncoming vehicle in a narrow road or the like. The information processing apparatus includes a map generating section generating map data associated with a circumference of a vehicle, and updating the map data in conformity with a movement of the vehicle, and a waiting space detecting section detecting a waiting space enabling the vehicle to wait on the basis of the map data, and generating waiting space information as information associated with the detected waiting space and used in setting of an escaping route on which the vehicle is escaped in order to pass an oncoming vehicle. The present technology, for example, can be applied to a vehicle controlling system which performs control of automatic driving.

Environmental information update apparatus, environmental information update method, and program for updating information regarding an obstacle in a space

Information regarding an obstacle region and information regarding an empty region are optimally updated to minimize an information amount. In the obstacle region, an obstacle exists in space where a mobile body moves. In the empty region, an obstacle does not exist. According to the disclosure, there is provided an environmental information update apparatus including an update unit that updates information regarding an obstacle region and information regarding an empty region, an obstacle existing in space where a mobile body moves in the obstacle region, the obstacle not existing in the empty region, in which the update unit updates the obstacle region, and updates the empty region on the basis of different periods of elapsed time.

MAP DISPLAY CONTROL DEVICE AND AUTOMATIC MAP SCROLLING METHOD

A map display control device includes a display processor to cause a display to display a map, an operation information acquiring unit to acquire information on an operation performed by a user, a scroll processor to scroll the map displayed on the display, and a priority object setting unit to determine a priority object having higher priority than other objects contained in the map. The scroll processor scrolls the map in step with an operation performed by the user to scroll the map, and automatically scrolls the map toward the priority object when determining that the operation has been ended.
