Method and system for exploiting information from heterogeneous sources

This invention describes a smart system for managing resource extraction, like mining or drilling. It gathers information from various sensors about the environment before extraction, and also collects data about the extraction equipment itself. This data is combined to create detailed models of the environment and the machinery. This combined intelligence is then sent back to the equipment to help it operate more efficiently and effectively, potentially even adjusting its actions based on real-time local sensor readings.

Why it matters: Filed before widespread adoption of advanced AI/ML for real-time data fusion and predictive modeling. Modern cloud and edge computing, coupled with cheaper, more capable sensors, make implementing such a complex system more feasible and powerful for autonomous equipment control.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: SpecializedComplex software, sensor integration, control interfaces
