Claim One:
1. A computer method for generating economic comparable data for one or more retail stores comprising the steps of: capturing by a recording device one or more visual recordings of the one or more retail stores; sending to a processor each of the one or more visual recordings; generating by the processor one or more representations from the each of the one or more visual recordings; refining by the processor each of the one or more representations based on one or more criteria to produce one or more refined representations; extracting by the processor content for evaluation from each of the one or more refined representations; evaluating by the processor the content, wherein said evaluating step comprises the steps of: selecting dates for a year-over-year comparable time period; picking parameters for cloud cover and satellite collection angles; identifying the each of the one or more representations that include an image of the one or more retail stores to produce identified representations; sub-selecting the identified representations that meet a threshold value and match the selected dates for the year-over-year comparable time period to produce selected representations; unifying one or more representations of the one or more retail stores and the selected representations into a new feature; dissolving the new feature based on spatial overlap and a first number of common fields; sorting the dissolved feature by lowest to highest panchromatic resolution; calculating and removing duplications of the new feature, wherein the duplications of the new feature include two or more representations of the one or more retail stores captured on a same day; dissolving the new feature based on a second number of common fields only found in the each of the one or more representations metadata to produce a remaining feature, wherein the second number of common fields is less than the first number of common fields; and displaying the remaining feature on a display, wherein the remaining feature is the economic comparable data for the one or more retail stores.
