Solution Overview

Problem

Commercial real estate customers face challenges in evaluating properties due to the need for physical site visits, which are costly and time-consuming, and existing tools fail to provide comprehensive and user-friendly information about complex factors like infrastructure proximity and building layouts.

Innovation Solution

A computer-implemented method and system for visualizing real estate markets by correlating property data from real estate databases with geospatial data from GIS databases, generating visual indicators such as geometric elements and images that represent property features and locations, allowing users to view properties and their surroundings in a comprehensive and interactive manner.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If physical site visits are conducted to evaluate real estate properties, then comprehensive information about property features and infrastructure can be obtained, but the process becomes costly and time-consuming

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveproperty information completenessVSAvoidtime for site visits
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent creates virtual copies of physical properties through photorealistic rendering and 3D modeling. These digital replicas include accurate representations of building exteriors, interior layouts, and surrounding infrastructure, allowing users to explore properties remotely without physical visits while obtaining comprehensive information about all property features.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The patent transitions from two-dimensional traditional real estate listings to three-dimensional immersive virtual environments. Users can navigate through properties in a 3D space, examining architectural details, spatial relationships, and infrastructure proximity from multiple angles, thereby obtaining complete property information without the time cost of physical visits.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Loss of information

If physical site visits are conducted to evaluate real estate properties, then detailed property features and infrastructure proximity can be assessed, but the process becomes expensive

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveproperty feature detailsVSAvoidcost of physical visits
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The patent creates virtual copies of physical properties through photorealistic rendering and 3D modeling. These digital replicas include accurate representations of building exteriors, interior layouts, and surrounding infrastructure, allowing users to explore properties remotely without physical visits while obtaining comprehensive information about all property features.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a computing system with virtual reality interface as an intermediary between users and physical properties. This intermediary provides detailed property information, infrastructure proximity data, and immersive visualization, eliminating the need for expensive physical visits while maintaining complete information access.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Loss of information

If traditional real estate tools are used to display property information, then basic property details can be shown, but complex factors like infrastructure proximity and building layouts cannot be effectively visualized

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecomprehensive property informationVSAvoiduser-friendliness of information presentation
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transitions from two-dimensional traditional real estate listings to three-dimensional immersive virtual environments. Users can navigate through properties in a 3D space, examining architectural details, spatial relationships, and infrastructure proximity from multiple angles, thereby obtaining complete property information without the time cost of physical visits.

Inventive Principle:

AI summary

A computer-implemented method and a computing system are provided for visualizing real-estate markets. The method includes obtaining property query data, locating and obtaining property data from a real estate database, locating and obtaining geospatial data associated with the one or more properties from a geographic information system (GIS) database based on the one or more criterion, correlating the property data with the geospatial data to provide correlation data, and generating visual indicators. The property query data includes data describing a request to identify one or more properties based on one or more criterion associated with the one or more properties. The property data and geospatial data are located based on the one or more criterion from the query data. The property data includes property location data and property feature data. The geospatial data includes geospatial coordinate data and geospatial image data. The visual indicators are generated based on the correlation data.
