1. A method comprising:
- receiving a construction design;
performing optical character recognition to detect characters within the construction design;
determining a construction theme based on detected characters;
extracting design features within the construction design, wherein the design features are assigned a probability value based on the construction theme; and
generating, using a processor, map data based on the detected characters, and the extracted design features based on the respective design feature probability value satisfying a predetermined probability threshold.
