Patent ID: 8650053

Claim:
An exposure analyzing system, comprising: one or more processors; and a memory operatively coupled to the one or more processors, the memory for storing instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, causes the one or more processors to define a first set of a plurality of parameters, wherein the first set of the plurality of parameters define a region of interest, to divide the region of interest into a grid having a plurality of grid cells, wherein at least one of the plurality of grid cells includes at least one exposure location, to define a second set of a plurality of parameters, wherein the second set of the plurality of parameters define an area of analysis, to iteratively position the area of analysis throughout the region of interest, wherein each iterative position of the area of analysis in the region of interest includes a respective plurality of grid cells, to determine which of the respective plurality of grid cells are located entirely in the area of analysis, to determine which of the respective plurality of grid cells are located entirely out of the area of analysis, to determine if any of the respective plurality of grid cells are located partially in the area of analysis, to determine if one or more exposure locations are located in the area of analysis, to determine a net exposure for the one or more exposure locations, and to determine a total exposure for the region of interest using the determined net exposure for the one or more exposure locations.
