Dynamic Graphical Window Merging for Well Extraction Planning
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current technologies lack the ability to dynamically combine graphical information from multiple windows in a graphical user interface for wellsite operations, limiting the extraction planning process by not representing auxiliary data relationships that are present but not visually displayed.
Innovation Solution
A computer-implemented method that dynamically combines graphical information from multiple windows by identifying and representing auxiliary data relationships, allowing for the generation of new graphical representations that inform and modify extraction plans for wellsite operations.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If multiple graphical representations are displayed in separate windows, then comprehensive data visualization is achieved, but auxiliary data relationships are not visually displayed
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple graphical representations from separate windows into a single integrated graphical representation. This merging process automatically integrates auxiliary data relationships that were previously hidden in separate windows, making them visible and accessible in the combined view without requiring additional interface complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The patent adds a new dimension to the graphical display by incorporating auxiliary data relationships as overlay information on top of the primary graphical representations. This dimensional addition reveals hidden data connections without fundamentally restructuring the existing interface layout
2Manufacturing precision
If traditional separate window display is used, then interface simplicity is maintained, but extraction planning accuracy is limited
Solution Approach 1:
By merging multiple graphical representations into one unified view, the system reveals auxiliary data relationships that provide additional context and connections for extraction planning. This integrated view enables planners to see relationships between different data elements that were previously distributed across separate windows, thereby improving planning accuracy
3Loss of information
If dynamic combination of graphical information is implemented, then new data relationships are revealed, but processing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs automatic integration of auxiliary data relationships without requiring manual user configuration. The graphical combination process self-adjusts to identify and display relevant data relationships based on the input graphical representations, reducing the need for complex user-side processing while still revealing hidden information

AI summary
Dynamically combining graphical information from multiple windows displayed in a graphical user interface includes displaying a first window including a first graphic representation of a first data set, and a second window including a second graphic representation of a second data set. An overlap condition is detected by constantly monitoring a boundary of the first window and a boundary of the second window. In response to detecting the overlap condition, the first data set and the second data set are processed to identify a first and second set of attributes of the first and second data sets, respectively. A third set of attributes is determined, whereby the third set of attributes is common to the first set of attributes and the second set of attributes. A third window including a third graphic representation is generated and displayed based on the first graphic representation and the third set of attributes.
