Field: Computer technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC G  B | IPC B  G

Claim 0:
1. An elevated lookout apparatus, wherein the apparatus comprises:
at least a housing mounted in an elevated location;
a plurality of cameras positioned radially within the at least a housing in a manner to create a combined field of view, wherein each camera of the plurality of cameras is configured to generate image data; and
at least a processor; and
a memory communicatively connected to the at least a processor and the plurality of cameras, the memory containing instructions configuring the at least a processor to:
receive the image data from each camera of the plurality of cameras; and
train an image machine learning model using image training data, wherein image training data correlates exemplary image data as inputs to examples of combined videos as an output; and
combine the image data from each camera of the plurality of cameras into a combined video using the trained image machine learning model;
identify a horizon datum as a function of the combined video using an identification learning model, wherein the identification machine learning model is configured to receive the combined video as an input and output an area of interest and the horizon datum; and
identify the area of interest utilizing a severity rating calculated as a function of a proximity between the elevated lookout apparatus and the area of interest.
