Abstract

Computer implemented methods and systems for populating overlays within a virtual environment. A server may obtain a virtual model of an overall region wherein the virtual model was generated based upon a plurality of images captured by a remote imaging vehicle. The server may then provide the virtual model to a user electronic device for rendering in a virtual environment. To support the rendering of the virtual environment, the server may identify properties and/or response vehicles located within the area modeled in the virtual environment and obtain one or more records that correspond to the modeled properties and/or response vehicles. The server may then populate an overlay for the properties and/or response vehicle with information included in the records.
