Classification: CPC G  B | IPC B  G

Claim 9:
10. A method of use for an elevated lookout apparatus, wherein the method comprises:
generating, using each camera of a plurality of cameras, image data, wherein the plurality of cameras are positioned radially within the at least a housing in a manner to create a combined field of view, wherein the at least a housing is mounted in an elevated location;
receiving, using at least a processor, the image data from each camera of the plurality of cameras; and
training, using the at least a processor, 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
combining, using the at least a processor, the image data from each camera of the plurality of cameras into a combined video using the trained image machine learning model;
identifying a horizon datum 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
identifying 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.
