dvcrn Image To Data
Overview
Based on DDC methodology (Chapter 2.4), this skill extracts structured data from construction images using computer vision, OCR, and AI models to analyze site photos, scanned documents, and drawings.

Common Use Cases
Analyze Site Photo

# Load image (in production, read from file)
with open("site_photo.jpg", "rb") as f:
image_data = f.read()
result = analyzer.analyze_site_photo(image_data)
print(f"Objects detected: {result['objects_detected']}")
print(f"Safety compliance: {result['safety_compliance']['overall_compliance']}")
print(f"Progress: {result['progress'].percent_complete}%")
Extract Drawing Data
with open("floor_plan.png", "rb") as f:
drawing_data = f.read()
data = analyzer.extract_drawing_data(drawing_data)
print(f"Drawing: {data['title_block'].get('drawing_number')}")
print(f"Project: {data['title_block'].get('project_name')}")
for table in data['tables']:
print(f"Table with {len(table['records'])} rows")
Detect Safety Violations
detector = ObjectDetector()
with open("site_photo.jpg", "rb") as f:
image_data = f.read()
safety = detector.detect_safety_compliance(image_data)
if safety['overall_compliance'] == 'non-compliant':
for violation in safety['violations']:
print(f"Violation: {violation['type']} - Count: {violation['count']}")
