System, Method, and Computer Program Product for Automatically Configuring a Detection Device

A system for automatically configuring a zone of interest, comprising:

• a multispectral LiDAR device;
• a detection device;
• and
• at least one processor in communication with the multispectral LiDAR device and the detection device, the at least one processor programmed or configured to:
• receive, from the multispectral LiDAR device, multispectral LiDAR data corresponding to a region;
• analyze the multispectral LiDAR data to determine a material classification for the region based on a spectral signature;
• determine a zone of interest within the region based on the material classification, the zone of interest comprising a subset of the region;
• generate a spatial boundary surrounding the zone of interest;
• storing the spatial boundary in a data storage device;
• monitor the region with the detection device based on the spatial boundary;
• identify an event occurring within the spatial boundary of the zone of interest based on monitoring the region with the detection device;
• and
• in response to identifying the event occurring within the spatial boundary, automatically initiate at least one responsive action.

A computer program product for automatically configuring a detection device, comprising at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium including program instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:

• receive, from a multispectral LiDAR device, multispectral LiDAR data corresponding to a region;
• analyze the multispectral LiDAR data to determine a material classification for the region based on a spectral signature;
• determine a zone of interest within the region based on the material classification, the zone of interest comprising a subset of the region;
• generate a spatial boundary surrounding the zone of interest;
• storing the spatial boundary in a data storage device;
• monitor the region with the detection device based on the spatial boundary;
• identify an event occurring within the spatial boundary of the zone of interest based on monitoring the region with the detection device;
• and
• in response to identifying the event occurring within the spatial boundary, automatically initiate at least one responsive action.
