Method and system for display of an electronic representation of physical effects and property damage resulting from a parametric natural disaster event

1. A method for displaying an augmented reality (AR) representation of physical effects and property damage resulting from a parametric earthquake event, comprising:

scanning, using one or more sensors of a user device, a scene in proximity to a user;

identifying a background and objects in the scene;

creating an AR background for the background of the scene and AR objects for the objects in the scene;

receiving at least one seismic characteristic from the user of the user device; and

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, and

wherein displaying the at least one seismic effect on the AR objects comprises:

generating an AR crack on the AR background; and

shading the AR crack to show three-dimensional parallax based on a point of view.

2. A method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the background is a wall and the objects are furnishings.

3. A method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein displaying the at least one seismic effect on the AR objects comprises:

independently applying the at least one seismic effect on the AR objects and the AR background.

4. A method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein, displaying the at least one seismic effect on the AR objects, comprises:

generating an oscillation on at least one of the AR objects.

5. A method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein displaying the at least one seismic effect on the AR objects comprises:

breaking an AR object into two or more AR partial objects.

6. A method in accordance with claim 5 , wherein a size of each partial object is less than a size of the AR object.

7. A method in accordance with claim 1 , further comprising:

displaying a control for a seismic intensity as one of the at least one seismic characteristic.

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 a user;

identify a background and objects in the scene;

create an AR background for the background of the scene and AR objects for the objects in the scene;

receive at least one seismic characteristic from the user of the user device; and

display 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, and

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:

generate an AR crack on the AR background; and

shade the AR crack to show three-dimensional parallax based on a point of view.

9. A non-transitory computer readable medium in accordance with claim 8 , wherein the background is a wall and the objects are furnishings.

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:

independently apply the at least one seismic effect on the AR objects and the AR background.

11. 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:

generate an oscillation on at least one of the AR objects.

12. 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:

break an AR object into two or more AR partial objects.

13. A non-transitory computer readable medium in accordance with claim 12 , wherein a cumulative size of each partial object is less than a size of the AR object.

14. A non-transitory computer readable medium in accordance with claim 8 , wherein the instructions when executed further cause the processor to:

display a control for a seismic intensity as one of the at least one seismic characteristic.

15. A method for displaying an augmented reality (AR) representation of physical effects and assessment of property damage resulting from a parametric earthquake event, comprising:

scanning, using one or more sensors of a user device, a scene in proximity to a user;

identifying a background and objects in the scene;

counting the objects identified in the scene;

creating an AR background for the background of the scene and AR objects for the objects in the scene;

receiving at least one seismic characteristic from the user of the user device;

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;

determining a damage amount resulting from the parametric earthquake event based on a number of objects identified in the scene and the received seismic characteristic;

displaying to the user an initial unit value for the background;

allowing the user to provide a custom unit value for the background; and

replacing the initial unit value with the custom unit value as an assigned unit value used to determine a final unit value for estimated structure damage.

16. A method displaying an augmented reality (AR) representation of physical effects and assessment of property damage resulting from a parametric earthquake event, comprising:

scanning, using one or more sensors of a user device, a scene in proximity to a user;

identifying a background and objects in the scene;

counting the objects identified in the scene;

creating a first list of objects identified in a first scene and their respective assigned values;

creating a second list of objects identified in a second scene and their respective assigned values;

combining the first list of objects and the second list of objects into a consolidated object list including all the object identified in the first scene and in the second scene and their respective assigned values;

creating an AR background for the background of the scene and AR objects for the objects in the scene;

receiving at least one seismic characteristic from the user of the user device;

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; and

determining a damage amount resulting from the parametric earthquake event based on a number of objects identified in the scene and the received seismic characteristic.

17. A method in accordance with claim 16 , further comprising:

using the consolidated object list to determine a consolidated object damage value for all the objects identified in the first scene and in the second scene and displaying the consolidated object damage value to the user.
