Abstract

A system and method for combining CAD, inspection, and building guideline data for analyzing repair decisions and selecting waste containers is described. One embodiment includes receiving digital building facet data for a first building facet of a set of one or more building facets; receiving digital inspection data for the first building facet; determining an amount of building material required to repair damage to an area of the first building facet, including determining a first amount of waste building material; determining a repair indicator for the first building facet, the determining a repair indicator based at least in part upon the digital facet data for the first building facet and the inspection data for the first building facet; determining an appropriate waste container based upon the first amount of waste material; and displaying an electronic image of the set of one or more building facets.

Claims

1. A method for property repair analysis, comprising:

receiving digital building facet data for a first building facet of a set of one or more building facets;

receiving digital inspection data for the first building facet;

determining an amount of building material required to repair damage to an area of the first building facet, including determining a first amount of waste building material;

determining a repair indicator for the first building facet, the determining a repair indicator based at least in part upon the digital facet data for the first building facet and the inspection data for the first building facet;

determining an appropriate waste container based upon the first amount of waste material; and

displaying an electronic image of the set of one or more building facets.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

receiving a list of available waste containers;

wherein the appropriate waste container is selected from the list of available waste containers.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the determining the appropriate waste containers includes determining whether the appropriate waste container is a recycling container.

5. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 1, further comprising:

receiving a list of available waste containers;

wherein the appropriate waste container is selected from the list of available waste containers.

6. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 1, wherein the determining the appropriate waste containers includes determining whether the appropriate waste container is a recycling container.

4. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium containing a plurality of program instructions executable by a processor of a computer for property repair analysis, the plurality of program instructions comprising instructions for:

receiving digital building facet data for a first building facet of a set of one or more building facets;

receiving digital inspection data for the first building facet;

determining an amount of building material required to repair damage to an area of the first building facet, including determining a first amount of waste building material;

determining a repair indicator for the first building facet, the determining a repair indicator based at least in part upon the digital facet data for the first building facet and the inspection data for the first building facet;

determining an appropriate waste container based upon the first amount of waste material; and

displaying an electronic image of the set of one or more building facets.

7. A system for property repair analysis, comprising:

at least one processor;

at least one network communications interface;

a memory containing a plurality of instructions configured to cause the at least one processor to;

receive digital building facet data for a first building facet of a set of one or more building facets;

receive digital inspection data for the first building facet;

determine an amount of building material required to repair damage to an area of the first building facet, including determining a first amount of waste building material;

determine a repair indicator for the first building facet, the determining a repair indicator based at least in part upon the digital facet data for the first building facet and the inspection data for the first building facet;

determine an appropriate waste container based upon the first amount of waste material; and

display an electronic image of the set of one or more building facets.

8. The system of claim 7, wherein the memory containing a plurality of instructions is further configured to cause the at least one processor to:

receive a list of available waste containers;

wherein the appropriate waste container is selected from the list of available waste containers.

9. The system of claim 7, wherein the memory containing a plurality of instructions is further configured to cause the at least one processor to determine the appropriate waste container by determining whether the appropriate waste container is a recycling container.
