| 20100138353 | COMPUTER IMPLEMENTED SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING AN OPTIMIZED SUSTAINABLE LAND USE PLAN - Briefly, in accordance with one embodiment of the invention, the computer implemented method evaluates the sustainability of land development plan. The computer implemented method applies sustainability data to the land planning and engineering design elements of a land development plan to generate sustainability measures. These sustainability measures may include environmental impacts such as carbon footprints, energy consumption, and increased storm water runoff. In addition, the computer implemented method estimates the costs involved in investing in sustainable land development and construction, provides a cost benefit analysis, compares the sustainability of numerous land development plans, and calculates the near and long term effects of sustainable land development on a land site. This real time analysis will allow developers, municipalities, and residents to quantify land planning decisions without expending significant time and money in a cumbersome land planning process. | 06-03-2010 |
| 20100211512 | Computer-Implemented Land Planning System and Method - A computer-implemented land planning system is designed to generate at least one conceptual fit solution to a user-defined land development problem. The system electronically creates at least one candidate solution to the land development problem. The candidate solution incorporates a number of engineering measurements applicable in development of an undeveloped land site. A fitness function quantitatively evaluates the candidate solution based on its fitness. A heuristic problem-solving strategy manipulates the engineering measurements of the candidate solution to achieve a more quantitatively fit solution to the land development problem. A computer output device outputs to a user documentation illustrating the fit solution to the land development problem. | 08-19-2010 |
