Abstract
A geographic information system (GIS) can receive, from a client device, an input indicating selection of a geographic site. The GIS can select, based on receiving the input, one or more political boundaries associated with the geographic site, one or more cadastral boundaries associated with the geographic site, and one or more aerial images associated with the geographic site. The GIS can generate an overlay that comprises a visual indication of the one or more political boundaries, a visual indication of the one or more cadastral boundaries, and a visual indication of one or more objects identified in the one or more aerial images. The GIS can transmit, to the client device, an instruction to display the overlay.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- receiving, at a geographic information system (GIS) and from a client device, an input indicating selection of a geographic site;
- selecting, by the GIS and based on receiving the input:
- one or more political boundaries associated with the geographic site,
- one or more cadastral boundaries associated with the geographic site, and
- one or more aerial images associated with the geographic site;
- generating, by the GIS, an overlay that comprises:
- a visual indication of the one or more political boundaries,
- a visual indication of the one or more cadastral boundaries, and
- a visual indication of one or more objects identified in the one or more aerial images,
- wherein the one or more objects are identified using a machine learning model, trained based on political boundaries, cadastral boundaries, and/or aerial images with seed sets of object boundaries that have been identified, to estimate object boundaries based on the identified political boundaries, identified cadastral boundaries, and/or identified aerial images;
- transmitting, by the GIS and to the client device, an instruction to display the overlay;
- receiving, by the GIS and based on transmitting the instruction to display the overlay, another input indicating selection of a geographic site boundary for the geographic site;
- and
- modifying, by the GIS and based on receiving the other input, a shape of the geographic site boundary in the overlay from a predefined shape to a user-defined shape.
11 more elements
A geographic information system (GIS), comprising:
- one or more memories;
- and
- one or more processors communicatively coupled to the one or more memories, to:
- receive, from a client device, an input indicating selection of a geographic site;
- select, based on receiving the input:
- one or more political boundaries associated with the geographic site,
- one or more cadastral boundaries associated with the geographic site, and
- one or more aerial images associated with the geographic site;
- generate an overlay that comprises:
- a visual indication of the one or more political boundaries,
- a visual indication of the one or more cadastral boundaries, and
- a visual indication of one or more objects identified in the one or more aerial images,
- wherein the one or more objects are identified using a machine learning model, trained based on political boundaries, cadastral boundaries, and/or aerial images with seed sets of object boundaries that have been identified, to estimate object boundaries based on the identified political boundaries, identified cadastral boundaries, and/or identified aerial images;
- transmit, to the client device, an instruction to display the overlay;
- receive, based on transmitting the instruction to display the overlay, another input indicating selection of a geographic site boundary for the geographic site;
- modify, based on receiving the other input, a shape of the geographic site boundary in the overlay from a predefined shape to a user-defined shape.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions, the instructions comprising:
- one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a geographic information system (GIS), cause the one or more processors to:
- receive, from a client device, an input indicating selection of a geographic site;
- select, based on receiving the input:
- one or more political boundaries associated with the geographic site,
- one or more cadastral boundaries associated with the geographic site, and
- one or more aerial images associated with the geographic site;
- generate an overlay that comprises:
- a visual indication of the one or more political boundaries,
- a visual indication of the one or more cadastral boundaries, and
- a visual indication of one or more objects identified in the one or more aerial images,
- wherein the one or more objects are identified using a machine learning model, trained based on political boundaries, cadastral boundaries, and/or aerial images with seed sets of object boundaries that have been identified, to estimate object boundaries based on the identified political boundaries, identified cadastral boundaries, and/or identified aerial images;
- transmit, to the client device, an instruction to display the overlay;
- receive, based on transmitting the instruction to display the overlay, another input indicating selection of a geographic site boundary for the geographic site;
- modify, based on receiving the other input, a shape of the geographic site boundary in the overlay from a predefined shape to a user-defined shape.
