Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If satellite image data is extracted and analyzed to evaluate empty house utilization, then measurement precision of empty house characteristics is improved, but device complexity and processing requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The satellite image data is segmented into multiple element types (population elements, traffic elements, natural elements, social elements) that can be independently extracted and analyzed. This segmentation allows the complex evaluation task to be divided into manageable components, improving measurement precision without overwhelming system complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an empty house utilization evaluation server as an intermediary that mediates between the raw satellite image data and the final evaluation results. This intermediary processes and structures the complex data into standardized elements, managing system complexity while maintaining high measurement precision.
2Loss of information
If multiple element images are extracted from satellite data, then information completeness about empty house is improved, but loss of time for processing increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary extraction and categorization of satellite image data into standardized element types (population, traffic, natural, social elements) before the actual evaluation process. This preliminary action organizes the data in advance, ensuring information completeness while reducing processing time during the evaluation phase.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transforms satellite image data into standardized parameter representations for different element types. By changing the data parameters from raw pixel information to structured element characteristics, the system achieves comprehensive information extraction while enabling efficient processing through standardized data formats.
3Reliability
If detailed analysis of population, traffic, and natural elements is performed, then reliability of utilization evaluation is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The analysis system segments the evaluation into distinct element categories (population elements for pedestrian activity, traffic elements for accessibility, natural elements for environmental quality). Each segment can be analyzed independently with specialized methods, improving reliability through focused analysis while managing complexity through modular processing.
Solution Approach 2:
The empty house utilization evaluation server is designed as a universal platform that handles multiple element types and analysis methods through a unified architecture. This multi-functional system can process different element categories using consistent procedures, enhancing evaluation reliability while avoiding the complexity of multiple separate specialized systems.
