SPATIO-TEMPORAL AND CONTEXT-BASED INDEXING AND REPRESENTATION OF SUBTERRANEAN NETWORKS AND MEANS FOR DOING SAME

摘要

Systems, methods and. devices for indexing, archiving, analyzing and reporting pipe and other void network data. Specifically, multi-dimensional indexing and correlation of spatial, temporal, feature, environmental, uncertainty and/ or context-based data is synchronized, indexed and analyzed across a wide variety of pipe networks at various times. The present invention preferably includes data represented at several different levels of reference including: referenced to the sensor with which it was collected; referenced to the robot or platform upon which the sensor is attached; and the world. The structure and functionality of the system provides for extensive querying, trouble -shooting and predictive analysis for pipe networks.
