20100098342 | DETECTING GEOGRAPHIC-AREA CHANGE USING HIGH-RESOLUTION, REMOTELY SENSED IMAGERY - A method, system, and medium are provided for detecting change in a geographic area. One embodiment includes receiving a set of remotely sensed imagery that depicts the geographic area, automatically identifying changes in physical features of the geographic area by comparing, without user intervention, the set of remotely sensed imagery to a dataset of previously stored remotely sensed imagery that also depicts the geographic area, and deriving a change-quality measurement associated with the set of remotely sensed imagery, wherein the change-quality measurement quantifies a suitability of comparison of the set of remotely sensed imagery to the previously stored remotely sensed imagery. | 04-22-2010 |
20100100548 | STORING CHANGE FEATURES DETECTED FROM HIGH-RESOLUTION, REMOTELY SENSED IMAGERY - A method, system, and medium are provided for identifying facilitating storage and retrieval of information associated with high-resolution, remotely sensed imagery. In one embodiment, a data structure includes information derived from change-detection information associated with remotely sensed imagery, which change-detection information is useable by the application program, and wherein the data structure includes a plurality of change indexes, each of which (1) indicates change in a given item from a first state to a second state and (2) is associated with a feature set that includes one or more of item-texture features and item-spectral features, wherein each of the change indexes is an entropy balanced statistical (EBS) k-d tree index that describes features associated with items within a geographic area that is reflected in the imagery, and wherein the features include one or more of the item-texture features and item-spectral features. | 04-22-2010 |
20100100835 | VISUALIZING GEOGRAPHIC-AREA CHANGE DETECTED FROM HIGH-RESOLUTION, REMOTELY SENSED IMAGERY - A method, system, and medium are provided for presenting aspects of change associated with a geographic area that has been captured by high-resolution, remotely sensed imagery. One embodiment of the method includes receiving a query directed at the geographic area that includes one or more inputs, the query seeking an identification of regions associated with the geographic area that are characterized by aspects of change based on the one or more inputs; applying the query to a dataset of geospatial information that stores imagery associated with the geographic area, wherein the dataset includes information that is sufficient to identify the regions, and wherein the imagery is derived from the high-resolution, remotely sensed imagery, which is characterized by having a resolution of three meters or less per pixel; receiving a first results set that includes a first plurality of keys and corresponding change scores, wherein, (1) each key is useable to identify a certain region, and (2) each change score indicates an amount of change in the certain region from a first state to a second state; and presenting at least a portion of the results set in a viewing application. | 04-22-2010 |

20100100540 | REVISING IMAGERY SEARCH RESULTS BASED ON USER FEEDBACK - A method, system, and medium are provided for revising a first set of search results related to high-resolution satellite imagery. One embodiment of the method includes receiving a query that seeks high-resolution, remotely sensed images of geographic areas that have changed consistent with a given change signature; returning indications of the geographic areas; and presenting a first set of images that corresponds to the indications; presenting a set of feedback of options in connection with each of the set of images, wherein the feedback options include one or more of a more-like-this option and a less-like-this option; such that a second set of images can be identified based on receiving input by way of the feedback options. | 04-22-2010 |

20100024340 | WIND BLOCKING DEVICE FOR BUILDINGS - The present invention includes a device and method of manufacture of the device. The device includes frame system and a rigid panel adapted to selectively cover an opening of a walled structure. The frame system includes a top rail and two side rails that couple to the walled structure. Each rail consists of a pair of oppositely disposed L-shaped bends and an intermediate flat panel body method. An L-shaped member couples to the flat panel, cooperating with one L-shaped bend to form a U-shaped channel, which adapts to slideably receive a rigid panel member consisting of plexiglass. A bottom rail releasably couples to the two side-rails to hold the rigid panel in place and allows for rapid installation and removal as needed. | 02-04-2010 |

20140290629 | ENGINE ASSEMBLY - An engine assembly generally includes an engine and an intake manifold. The engine includes a plurality of cylinders. The plurality of cylinders includes a pair of cylinders. The engine is configured to sequentially fire the pair of cylinders. The intake manifold defines a plurality of ports. Each port is in fluid communication with one of the plurality of cylinders. The plurality of ports includes a pair of ports. Each of the pair of ports is disposed in fluid communication with one of the pair of cylinders. The intake manifold further includes a baffle disposed between the pair of ports to restrict fluid flow within the intake manifold between the pair of ports. | 10-02-2014 |
20150059718 | Engine Crankcase Breathing Passage With Flow Diode - An internal combustion engine is disclosed which includes an improved crankcase drain back system. A set of drain flow diodes are disposed in each of the drain lines to direct fluid flow in a direction from the head portion to the crankcase. Likewise, a set of breather flow diodes are disposed in the breather lines to direct fluid flow in a second direction from the cylinder portion to the head portion. The flow diodes include a series of stacked flow diode elements which allow flow in one direction, while resisting flow in the opposite direction. | 03-05-2015 |
