Method and system for display of an electronic representation of physical effects and property damage resulting from a parametric natural disaster event
A method is provided for displaying an augmented reality (AR) representation of physical effects and property damage resulting from a parametric earthquake event. The method includes scanning, using one or more sensors of a user device, a scene in proximity to a user. The method also includes identifying a background and objects in the scene. The method further includes creating an AR background for the background of the scene and AR objects for the objects in the scene. In addition, the method includes receiving at least one seismic characteristic from the user through the display of the user device. The method additionally includes displaying at least one seismic effect on the AR objects and the AR background in the scene based on the at least one received seismic characteristic.

receiving an adjustment of the slider while the at least one seismic effects is applied to the AR object; and
adjusting the at least one seismic effects based on the adjustment of the current intensity value of the slider.
7. A method in accordance with claim 5 , wherein the at least one seismic effect applied to the AR object when the current intensity value is below a threshold is different than when the current intensity value is at and above the threshold.
8. A non-transitory computer readable medium, for displaying an augmented reality (AR) representation of physical effects and property damage resulting from a parametric earthquake event, containing instructions that when executed cause a processor to:
scan, using one or more sensors of a user device, a scene in proximity to an electronic device;
identify, in the scene, a background and objects between the background and the electronic device;
create an AR background for the background of the scene and a respective AR object for each of the objects in the scene;
display, on a display of the electronic device, the AR background and the respective AR objects overlaid over the background and objects identified by the electronic device;
receive at least one seismic characteristic from a user of the user device; and
adjust the displayed AR objects and the displayed AR background in the scene using at least one seismic effect based on the at least one received seismic characteristic.

display the AR background overlaid over the object in the scene when the respective AR object is moved due to the at least one seismic effect.
10. A non-transitory computer readable medium in accordance with claim 8 , wherein the instructions when executed cause the processor to display the at least one seismic effect on the AR objects comprise instructions that when executed cause the processor to:
apply a first seismic effect independently on the AR objects and a second seismic effect on the AR background based on the at least one receive seismic characteristic, wherein the first seismic effect is different from the second seismic effect.
11. A non-transitory computer readable medium in accordance with claim 8 , wherein the at least one seismic characteristic is received using a slider on the display of the electronic device.
12. A non-transitory computer readable medium in accordance with claim 11 , wherein the slider is configured to control a current intensity value of the at least one seismic effect on the AR objects.
