Systems and methods for location based image telegraphy
First Claim
1. A system for providing location information in relation to an imaging device, the system comprising:
- a location sensor;
an image sensor;
a microprocessor, wherein the microprocessor is communicably coupled to the location sensor and the image sensor; and
a computer readable medium, wherein the computer readable medium includes instructions executable by the microprocessor to;
receive a location from the location sensor;
receive an image from the image sensor; and
associate the location with the image.

Abstract
Systems and methods for associating images with location and/or other information. In some cases, the systems include an image sensor, a location sensor, and a microprocessor. The microprocessor is communicably coupled to a computer readable medium that includes instructions executable by the microprocessor to: receive a location from the location sensor; receive an image from the image sensor; and associate the location with the image. Some of the methods provide for capturing an object image of an object using an image sensor; capturing a location of the image sensor; and associating the location with the object image. Other methods and systems are also disclosed.
