= Assessing Damage

Assessing Property Damage with AI The critical task of damage claim processing is typically labor-intensive and requires a significant amount of time. The deep learning tools within Esri ArcGIS sped up the process to provide aid to those affected by the Woolsey fire. This demo shows the workflow used; from training the deep learning model to inferring which automated the detection of damaged homes. For this demo, we used a client-server architecture which gives a clean separation of the roles of a Geographic Information System (GIS) Analyst and a Data Scientist. The GIS Analyst uses NVIDIA Quadro Virtual Data Center Workstation (Quadro vDWS) software to create, edit and explore spatial data. The Data Scientist uses NVIDIA Virtual Compute Server (vComputeServer) software to train/build a model which will then be used by the GIS Analyst to execute object detection inferencing. "To learn more about virtualization in the data center, and to try building and running this demo yourself using free trails of both virtual GPUs and ArcGIS (including the imagery used in this study from OpenAerialMap)
