wherein the content item includes a geometric shape based on a type of the damage on the vehicle.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein transmitting the content item comprises:

transmitting a first type of content item for a first type of damage in the image of the damaged part and transmitting a second type of content item for a second type of damage in the image of the damaged part.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

obtaining another plurality of images of the vehicle;

identifying, in the other plurality of images, parts of the vehicle using the artificial intelligence technique; and

identifying, in one or more of the other plurality of images, the damaged part of the vehicle.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

storing the information identifying the damaged part of the vehicle and information identifying the vehicle in a data structure.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving information identifying the vehicle,

wherein the information identifying the vehicle includes one or more of:

a make of the vehicle,

a model of the vehicle,

a year of the vehicle, or

a vehicle identification number (VIN).

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, from another device, a user selection of a filtering option; and

transmitting, to the other device, the one or more images depicting the damaged part of the vehicle without transmitting one or more other images, of the plurality of images, that do not depict the damaged part of the vehicle.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

generating the content item for display with the one or more images depicting the damaged part of the vehicle,

wherein the content item includes information regarding the damage on the vehicle.

8. A device, comprising:

one or more memories; and

one or more processors, communicatively coupled to the one or more memories, configured to:

obtain a plurality of images of a vehicle and information identifying one or more parts of the vehicle,

wherein the plurality of images:

were obtained from a variety of types of cameras, and

had a variety of lighting conditions;

process, using an artificial intelligence technique, the plurality of images to form a standardized plurality of images,

wherein the standardized plurality of images have a common brightness condition;

process the standardized plurality of images to identify the one or more parts of the vehicle;

receive information identifying a location of damage on the vehicle and information regarding the damage on the vehicle;

process the information identifying the location of the damage on the vehicle to identify a damaged part of the vehicle;

identify, from the plurality of images, one or more images depicting the damaged part of the vehicle;

store information identifying the damaged part of the vehicle and the information identifying one or more parts of the vehicle; and

transmit, to a server device, a content item with the one or more images depicting the damaged part of the vehicle,

wherein the content item includes a geometric shape for display at a location, in the one or more images depicting the damaged part of the vehicle, that is adjacent to the location of the damage on the vehicle,

wherein the geometric shape is based on a type of the damage on the vehicle.

9. The device of claim 8 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:

provide, to another device, characteristics of the vehicle including one or more of:

vehicle mileage,

vehicle price, or

vehicle color.

10. The device of claim 8 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:

receive another plurality of images of the vehicle;

identify, in the other plurality of images, parts of the vehicle using the artificial intelligence technique; and

identify, in one or more of the other plurality of images, the damaged part of the vehicle.

11. The device of claim 8 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:

transmit a first type of content item for a first type of damage in the one or more images of the damaged part and transmit a second type of content item for a second type of damage in the one or more images of the damaged part.

12. The device of claim 8 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:

receive information identifying the vehicle,

wherein the information identifying the vehicle includes one or more of:

a make of the vehicle,

a model of the vehicle,

a year of the vehicle, or

a vehicle identification number (VIN).

13. The device of claim 8 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:

receive, from another device, a user selection of a filtering option; and

transmit, to the other device, the one or more images depicting the damaged part of the vehicle without transmitting one or more other images, of the plurality of images, that do not depict the damaged part of the vehicle.

14. The device of claim 8 , wherein the geometric shape includes one or more of:

a circle,

a triangle, or

a square.

15. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions, the instructions comprising:

one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:

obtain a plurality of images of a vehicle and information identifying one or more parts of the vehicle,

wherein the plurality of images:
