INTELLIGENT STRUCTURAL PROTECTION SYSTEMS AND METHODS

Abstract

Systems and methods for deployment of a protective component, generation of a customized design for the protective component, or combinations thereof are associated with a structure comprising a portion, a neural network model, processor(s), and memory storing machine readable instructions. When executed for deployment, the neural network model predicts the likelihood of the occurrence of the natural event in the geographic area within the time frame as high as defined by when the likelihood is above a threshold, and deploys the protective component for protecting the portion of the structure when the likelihood is high. For customized design, the neural network model is used to access dimension and weather data associated with a structure and weather data to generate the customized design of the protective component for the structure.
