Abstract

A system and method of providing anti-monotony construction in a master-planned community (MPC), the method including: receiving a request for construction of a new home in the MPC, the request including a lot and a specification including details of the new home, the lot selectable from available lots in the MPC, the specification including one or more details selectable from available details; processing the request against a rule associated with diversity of the one or more details of the specification from details of lots identified as consecutive neighbors on one or more sides of the lot, the one or more sides and the details of the lots considered being identified in rule; and generating a status of approval or denial of the request based on whether at least one of the details of the specification matches at least one of the details of the lots identified as being consecutive neighbors.

Dependent claims

A method of providing anti-monotony construction in a master-planned community, the method comprising:

processing geospatial information of contiguous line strings that represent street segments in order to identify streets of the master-planned community;
processing geospatial information of continuous closed polygons to identify lots of the master-planned community;
performing geo-projection of the line strings of each of the streets to identify a first ordered set of lots disposed on a first side of each of the streets, and a second ordered set of lots disposed on a second side of each of the streets;
processing each lot in the first ordered set of lots and in the second ordered set of lots for each of the streets to determine neighbors on left, right, and across sides of each lot in the master-planned community;
receiving a request associated with construction of a new home in the master-planned community, the request including a selected lot and a selected specification including one or more architectural details associated with the new home, the selected lot being selectable from a plurality of available lots in the master-planned community, the selected specification including one or more architectural details being selectable from a plurality of available architectural details;
processing the request against an anti-monotony rule associated with architectural diversity of the one or more architectural details of the selected specification from architectural details of a plurality of lots identified as being consecutive neighbors on one or more of the sides of the selected lot, the one or more of the sides and the architectural details of the plurality of lots considered being identified in the anti-monotony rule;
and
generating a status of approval or denial of the request based on whether at least one of the architectural details of the selected specification matches at least one of the architectural details of the plurality of lots identified as being consecutive neighbors.

5 more elements

A system to provide anti-monotony construction in a master-planned community, the system comprising:

a computing device;
a non-transitory memory storing instructions that, when executed by the computing device, cause the computing device to execute operations comprising:
processing geospatial information of contiguous line strings that represent street segments in order to identify streets of the master-planned community;
processing geospatial information of continuous closed polygons to identify lots of the master-planned community;
performing geo-projection of the line strings of each of the streets to identify a first ordered set of lots disposed on a first side of each of the streets, and a second ordered set of lots disposed on a second side of each of the streets;
processing each lot in the first ordered set of lots and in the second ordered set of lots for each of the streets to determine neighbors on left, right, and across sides of each lot in the master-planned community;
receiving a request associated with construction of a new home in the master-planned community, the request including a selected lot and a selected specification including one or more architectural details associated with the new home, the selected lot being selectable from a plurality of available lots in the master-planned community, the selected specification including one or more architectural details being selectable from a plurality of available architectural details;
processing the request against an anti-monotony rule associated with architectural diversity of the one or more architectural details of the selected specification from architectural details of a plurality of lots identified as being consecutive neighbors on one or more of the sides of the selected lot, the one or more of the sides and the architectural details of the plurality of lots considered being identified in the anti-monotony rule;
and
generating a status of approval or denial of the request based on whether at least one of the architectural details of the selected specification matches at least one of the architectural details of the plurality of lots identified as being consecutive neighbors.
