IMAGE SEGMENTATION SYSTEM FOR VERIFICATION OF PROPERTY ROOF DAMAGE
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system for processing an image to segment the image for property damage assessment, the system comprising:
- a processing device; and
a computer-readable medium containing programming instructions that are configured to cause the processing device to;
receive, from an image capturing device, a digital image of a roof of a property,process the image to identify a plurality of segments, each of which corresponds to a tab or tooth of a shingle on the roof,save a result of the processing to a data file as a segmented image of the roof, anduse the segmented image to identify a type of damage to the roof.

Abstract
A system segments a set of images of a property to identify a type of damage to the property. The system receives, from an image capturing device, a digital image of a roof or other feature of the property. The system processes the image to identify a set of segments, in which each segment corresponds to a piece of the feature, such as a tab or tooth of a shingle on the roof. The system saves a result of the processing to a data file as a segmented image of the property, and it uses the segmented image to identify a type of damage to the property.

8. A method of processing an image to segment the image for property damage assessment, the method comprising:
by a processing device, executing programming instructions that cause the processing device to; receive, from an image capturing device, a digital image of a roof of a property, process the digital image to identify a plurality of segments, each of which corresponds to a tab or tooth of a shingle on the roof, save a result of the processing to a data file as a segmented image of the roof, and use the segmented image to identify a type of damage to the roof. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A method of processing an image to segment the image for property damage assessment, the method comprising:
by a processing device, executing programming instructions that cause the processing device to; receive, from an image capturing device, a digital image of a roof of a property, process the digital image to produce an edge map of the image and use the edge map to identify a plurality of segments, each of which corresponds to a tab or tooth of a shingle on the roof, save a result of the processing to a data file as a segmented image of the roof, and use the segmented image to identify a type of damage to the roof. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19)
