1. A computer-implemented method for generating an electronic inventory list of personal belongings, comprising, via one or more processors, transceivers, sensors, and/or servers:
receiving light detection and ranging (LIDAR) data generated from one or more LIDAR cameras;
analyzing the LIDAR data to determine or identify one or more personal articles or insurable assets including one or more vehicles, and make and model thereof;
generating an electronic inventory list of personal belongings based upon the one or more personal articles or insurable assets determined or identified from the LIDAR data, wherein the electronic inventory list includes the one or more vehicles, and make and model thereof identified from the analysis of the LIDAR data;
transmitting the electronic inventory list to a mobile device of a customer via wireless communication and/or data transmission over one or more radio frequency links for customer modification; and
receiving, from the mobile device of the customer, a modification to the electronic inventory list;
wherein generating the electronic inventory list includes, via the one or more processors, transceivers, sensors, and/or servers, processor analysis of:
(i) the LIDAR data, and
(ii) one or more additional sources of data including: smart home sensor data and/or images; and/or smart infrastructure data and/or images.
