20120080191 | Apparatus and methods for separating sand from well fracturing return water - Apparatus and methods for removing sand or other particulate from well fracturing return water are disclosed. In a sand separator box, a barrier element divides the tank into an upper compartment and a lower compartment. Particulate-laden return water flows through a gas separator and then into the upper compartment of the box. The barrier element allows the water in the upper compartment to pass into the lower compartment while keeping the sand or particulate in the upper compartment. As water accumulates in the lower compartment, it is pumped out to storage tanks or back to the well for reuse. | 04-05-2012 |

20110196611 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING ROAD FEATURES - A system and method identifies road features that may not appear on a map database, such as paths not described as roads on the map database, and whether all the roads at a crossing cross at the same grade level. The system and method may thus be used to identify points of departure from, or points of merging onto, a road described by the map database or a path identified as described herein, but not described by the map database. | 08-11-2011 |
20110264708 | METHODS AND SYSTEM FOR DEDUCING ROAD GEOMETRY AND CONNECTIVITY - Methods and systems for generating, deriving, and enhancing drivable road databases are provided. A baseline road in a road network is defined and position and/or trajectory data collected by vehicles traveling the baseline road are compiled and compared to a representation of the baseline road in an existing database. Identity and/or other property information about the road are assigned form the existing database to the new database. | 10-27-2011 |

20110004399 | Geocoding Locations Near A Specified City - Specified streets or intersections that are within a specified distance of a specified city can be found by a search, even when they are not actually in that city. For computational efficiency, some addresses are included in search results even when they exceed the specified distance from the specified city by a small amount (“false positives”). The search method guarantees that no instance of the street name within the specified distance of the specified city is erroneously missed (“false negatives”). | 01-06-2011 |
20140142852 | USER INTERFACE SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR A VEHICLE NAVIGATION DEVICE - A user interface for use in a vehicle navigation and traffic information device. Various adaptable menu commands and intuitive UI elements are provided to ease user navigation of the interface and to minimize driver distraction while providing information in an optimized manner. | 05-22-2014 |

20120016574 | GPS TRACE FILTERING - A mobile device can function as a probe to sense conditions on roads and other areas of interest. A mobile device can have a GPS receiver to receive traces of GPS fixes. In a system with many such probes, it may be desirable to reduce an amount of GPS data reported by each device. To reduce such data reporting, a trace of GPS fixes is approximated by a selection of representative GPS fixes. Examples of how such a selection can be made are disclosed. Parameters and other behaviour by each device functioning as a probe can be set by central controller; for example, probes can be turned on and off, reporting frequencies can be adjusted, and thresholds used in the approximation can be set. | 01-19-2012 |
20120250540 | PRESENTING INFORMATION AT ONE OR MORE MOBILE COMMUNICATION DEVICES IN A TRANSPORTATION NETWORK - The disclosure described technology for presenting information via a mobile communication device in a transportation network, the transportation network modeled by segment and time slot. Information tagged by modeled segment, modeled time slot, and aggregate demographics of a target audience in the modeled segment and modeled time slot is received. The aggregate demographics include at least route context of transportation network users in the segment and time slot. The received information, including received tagged information, is published to a communication network of the mobile communication device. The published information is filtered for published information tagged with aggregate demographics corresponding to demographics of the mobile communication device—demographics of the mobile communication device including at least a route context of the mobile communication device. The filtered information is presented via the mobile communication device. | 10-04-2012 |

20120125330 | INHALATION DEVICE AND METHOD OF DISPENSING MEDICAMENT - The present invention relates to an inhaler, comprising a base having at least one air-tight, foil-sealed cavity containing medicament. An actuator is engagable with a separating element attached to the foil, the actuator having an energized position in which it is biased towards an unloaded position so as to cause the separating element and attached foil to be moved away from the cavity. A latch has a first position, in which it latches the actuator in said energized position, wherein the latch is at least partly arranged in a flow path such that an inhalation flow through the flow path affects the latch to move from the first position to the second position. The invention also relates to a method of dispensing a medicament from a sealed cavity inside an inhaler. | 05-24-2012 |

20150265448 | SYSTEM FOR RESHAPING SKULL - The present invention relates to a system intended to aid in the surgical correction of malformed regions of the skull by reshaping bone pieces, particularly in remodeling a skull. The present invention provides a system intended to aid in the surgical correction of a skull, particularly of craniosynostosis, wherein the system shall be based around a set of disposable three-dimensional skull templates, but it is also within the scope of the invention to use skull templates, which are sterilisable and can be re-used. A skull template corresponding to the size and desired head form of the patient is used as a template to remodel the cranial vault. | 09-24-2015 |
