US Patent 10204193 Large scale analysis of catastrophic weather damage

Estimating storm damage on a large scale includes collecting geospatial data from a plurality of sensors disparately situated in a defined geographic area; collecting the geospatial data occurs before and during a determined or simulated significant weather event. Geospatial property attribute information for each of a plurality of real property structures within the defined geographic area is also provided. A supercomputer estimates a magnitude and duration of significant weather event forces at points associated with each of the plurality of real property structures according to a significant weather event model in order to produce at least one model output data set. The model output data set is applied to the geospatial property attribute information and, based on the application of model output data, damage to the plurality of real property structures is automatically estimated.
