METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROCESSING POWER USAGE READING DATA AND GENERATING A POWER USAGE BILL

摘要

A method for processing power usage reading device data comprises collecting the time varying power usage reading device data for an image capture device placed in a power distribution network. The image capture device is configured to capture an image of at least one power usage reading device of the power distribution network. The image data is communicated to a server configured to process the image data. The image data is processed to identify at least one indicia. The at least one indicia is analyzed to provide power usage reading device status, power usage statistics among other useful indicators. A bill is generated based upon the analysis.
