20100180191 | Modifying an Electronic Graphics File to be Searchable According to Annotation Information - In certain embodiments, a method for locating an electronic graphics file stored in a database includes extracting from an electronic graphics file, the electronic graphics file including a first and a second header, the first header of the electronic graphics file being searchable, information corresponding to electronic graphics file annotations stored in the second header of the electronic graphics file. The method further includes storing at least a portion of the extracted information corresponding to electronic graphics file annotations in the first header of the electronic graphics file to form an annotations-searchable version of the electronic graphics file, the annotations-searchable version of the electronic graphics file being searchable according to at least a portion of the information corresponding to electronic graphics file annotations stored in the first header of the electronic graphics file. | 07-15-2010 |
20100332552 | Method and System for Generating Fused and Exploited Image Products - According to one embodiment, a computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions, when executed by a computer is configured to request a National Imagery Transmission Format (NITF) file. The NITF file comprises a geo-spatially enabled image, associated metadata, and text annotations. A plurality of graphical overlays are retrieved from a metadata repository. The plurality of graphical overlays comprise additional metadata associated with the geo-spatially enabled image. Text annotations are extracted from the geo-spatially enabled image. A skeleton Keyhole Markup Language (KML) file is created. Metadata overlays for each type of metadata and text annotations are added to the skeleton KML file. Overlays for the text annotations are added to the skeleton KML file. An image overlay for the geo-spatially enabled image is added to the skeleton KML file. The skeleton KML file and all files associated with the metadata overlays and annotations are zipped into a zipped KML (KMZ) file. The KMZ file is uploaded to a discoverable data store. | 12-30-2010 |

20120016346 | CATHETER HUB - A catheter hub includes a distal assembly including a distal hub member adapted to be fixedly attached to an outer catheter and a proximal assembly including a proximal hub member adapted to be fixedly attached to an inner catheter disposed through the outer catheter. An elongate member connects the proximal and distal assemblies such that the proximal and distal assemblies can translate longitudinally relative to one another. | 01-19-2012 |
20140358187 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR LOADING AND IMPLANTING A SHAPE MEMORY IMPLANT - An implant insertion system includes a shape memory implant movable between a first shape a second shape and an implant insertion device movable between an implant disengagement position and an implant engagement position. The implant insertion device receives the shape memory implant in its first shape while in its implant disengagement position. Movement of the implant insertion device from its implant disengagement position to its implant engagement position manipulates the shape memory implant from its first shape to its second shape. The implant insertion device maintains the shape memory implant in its second shape until delivery of the shape memory implant into tissue or bone. | 12-04-2014 |
20150088074 | CATHETER HUB - A catheter hub includes a distal assembly including a distal hub member adapted to be fixedly attached to an outer catheter and a proximal assembly including a proximal hub member adapted to be fixedly attached to an inner catheter disposed through the outer catheter. An elongate member connects the proximal and distal assemblies such that the proximal and distal assemblies can translate longitudinally relative to one another. | 03-26-2015 |
