Accident assessment and reconstruction systems and applications
First Claim
1. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing computer executable instructions that when executed on a computer, cause the computer to effectuate operations comprising:
- receiving, by a processor of the computer, location-specific information for an accident scene, wherein the location-specific information comprises an image of a roadway;
receiving, by the processor, map information that includes the accident scene;
creating, by the processor, a base image for a representation of the accident scene using the map information and the location-specific information;
augmenting, by the processor, the base image based on traffic information;
causing, by the processor, the base image to be transmitted to a party involved in an accident that occurred at the accident scene; and
receiving, by the processor, an indication from the party that the base image is accurate.

Abstract
Accident assessment and reconstruction systems and applications are described. A computer system and software application to reconstruct the scene of an automobile accident by rendering two-dimensional or three-dimensional visual perspectives of an accident. Furthermore, a computer system and software application to assess damage to a vehicle following an accident by rendering a three-dimensional perspective of a vehicle. The three-dimensional perspective of a vehicle illustrates the severity of damage to the vehicle. The rendered visual perspectives create more realistic and detailed documentation of an accident may be useful in accident reporting and insurance claim reporting.

7. A computer system, comprising:
-
a processor; and memory coupled with the processor, the memory storing executable instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to effectuate operations comprising; receiving data from a recording device, the data representative of a vehicle'"'"'s movement; receiving location-specific information for an accident scene, wherein the location-specific information comprises an image of a roadway; receiving map information that includes the accident scene; creating a reconstructed accident scene, based on the data representative of the vehicle'"'"'s movement, the map information, and the location-specific information; augmenting the reconstructed accident scene based on traffic information; causing the base image to be transmitted to a party involved in an accident that occurred at the accident scene; and receiving an indication from the party that the base image is accurate. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13)
