Computational systems and methods are disclosed that learn about and assist with appropriate structure-based design choices. The systems and methods autonomously explore design states, and suggest to a user one or more optimize design states. Constraints are provided to limit exploration to valid design states. Systems and methods are disclosed that assist groups of users with coordinating their efforts in producing a cohesive design. Systems and methods are disclosed for learning from past optimizations in order to provide more rapid convergence on an optimized design, avoid local maxima and other hurdles to optimization, avoid undesired optimizations, and so on.

A computer-implemented subsystem and method is disclosed for receiving user qualification data, comparing that data to certification criteria, and providing user certification according thereto, in the context of a system for designing a structure. A variety of users may be certified, including architects, designers, component and service providers, permitting authorities, builders, financers, future tenants, etc. A wide variety of certifications may be provided including by trade, by attributes of the structure, by intended use of the design system, etc. Certification may be based on general experience, references, time spent with the design system, training completed, examination passed, other certifications, etc. Certification may be stand-alone or may be part of an ongoing continuing education process. The design system may limit actions a user may perform on a design based on certification and certification level. Certified users may be connected with clients and other opportunities through the design system or otherwise.

System and methods for evaluating and coordinating the design and implementation of a structure is disclosed. The system includes an attributes engine, configured to receive design data for a structure; quantify a plurality of measures of various attributes of the structure based on the design data; from the quantified plurality of measures of various attributes of the structure, determine a structure fitness function, F, whereby: F=f({right arrow over (w)}1{right arrow over (a)}1,{right arrow over (w)}2{right arrow over (a)}2, . . . {right arrow over (w)}n{right arrow over (a)}n) wherein a1, a2, . . . an are each quantifications of an attribute, respectively, of a structure based on the structure design, and w1, w2, . . . wn are each weighting values corresponding to each attribute quantification, respectively; and, an interface for providing an indication of the structure fitness function to a user. The structure fitness function may be evaluated and a value provided thereby for a variety of perspectives, such as sum of weighted attributes, a mean function value, etc.

A computer-implemented system for designing a structure and coordinating its implementation is disclosed. The system includes a design workspace, a design engine which receives various inputs and produces a structure design for display in the design workspace, a requirements providing structure design requirement rules to the design engine for producing the structure design, and a cell source providing a definition of a cell that forms a portion of the structure design. The cell is configured to be assembled together with other cells to form the structure design. An attributes engine quantifies measures of various attributes of a structure based on the structure design during the process of designing the structure, and displays the quantified measures in a dashboard user interface. Optimization engines for analyzing the structure design, and proposing alternative designs is provided. The design may be optimized for various criteria, including the attributes quantified by the attributes engine.

摘要:
A computer-implemented system for coordinating the design and implementation of a structure is disclosed. The system includes a design workspace, a design engine which receives various inputs and produces a structure design for display in the design workspace, first and second interfaces permitting first and second users, respectively, to view and manipulate a design, either independently or concurrently, and a library of design elements and editing tools accessible to the first and second users. One or more users may be provided with controls limiting the manipulations that other user(s) may make to the design. Change tracking and error and conflict checking are provided to assist with merging design manipulations originating from separate users.

Systems and methods are provided for manually finding a view for a geographic object in a street level image and associating the view with the geographic object. Information related to a geographic object and a first image related to the geographic object is displayed. User inputs indicating a presence of the geographic object in the image and user input indicating a viewpoint within the image are received and processed. An association of the viewpoint, the image and the geographic object is made and the association is stored in a database. A second image is determined, based on the association, as a default initial image to be displayed for the geographic object in a mapping application.
