==PFAS REMEDIATION OPTION EXPLORER TOOL - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240028185 titled 'PFAS REMEDIATION OPTION EXPLORER TOOL

==Simplified Explanation==

The disclosed patent application describes a computer-implemented method for aggregating and evaluating data related to the remediation of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). The method involves aggregating data for multiple remediation options and predefined criteria, and graphically displaying this data in a user-modifiable chart. Each graphical representation in the chart visually plots data points with weights, and the representations are ordered based on the rank of the criteria. The weights are automatically updated based on user input modifying the rank of a criterion.

* The patent application describes a computer-based method for evaluating and comparing different options for remediating PFAS contamination.
* The method involves aggregating data from various sources and presenting it in a graphical chart format.
* The chart includes multiple graphical representations, each representing a different remediation option and predefined criteria.
* The data points in the chart are visually plotted with weights, which are based on the rank of the criteria.
* The chart is dynamically updated based on user input modifying the rank of a criterion.
* The updated chart provides a visual representation of the aggregated data, allowing users to compare and evaluate different remediation options.

Potential applications of this technology:

* Environmental consulting firms can use this method to assess and compare different remediation options for PFAS contamination at various sites.
* Government agencies responsible for regulating PFAS contamination can utilize this method to evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of different remediation approaches.
* Researchers studying PFAS contamination can benefit from this method by easily visualizing and analyzing data related to remediation options.

Problems solved by this technology:

* The method addresses the challenge of evaluating and comparing multiple remediation options for PFAS contamination, which can be complex and time-consuming.
* It provides a standardized and visual approach to aggregating and presenting data, making it easier for users to understand and compare different options.
* The method allows for user input to modify the ranking of criteria, enabling customization and flexibility in the evaluation process.

Benefits of this technology:

* The method streamlines the evaluation process for PFAS remediation options, saving time and resources.
* It provides a clear and visual representation of data, facilitating better decision-making and communication among stakeholders.
* The user-modifiable chart allows for customization and adaptability to specific project requirements.
* The method promotes transparency and accountability in the evaluation of PFAS remediation options.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

disclosed herein is a computer-implemented method comprising aggregating pfas remediation evaluation data for a plurality of remediation options and for a plurality of predefined criteria; graphically displaying the user modifiable chart comprising the plurality of graphical representations of the aggregated pfas remediation evaluation data, wherein: each graphical representation depicts data points visually plotted with weights, the plurality of graphical representations for the plurality of predefined criteria are visually ordered according to a rank of the plurality of predefined criteria, and the weights are based on the rank of the plurality of predefined criteria; detecting a first user input modifying the rank of at least one predefined criterion; in accordance with the first user input, automatically updating the weights of the data points; and displaying an updated user modifiable chart comprising the plurality of graphical representations of the aggregated pfas remediation evaluation data.
