METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PHOTO PLANNING AND TRACKING
First Claim
1. A method of tracking image capture compliance with an image capture criteria, the method comprising:
- receiving user-defined criteria for specifying an image capture plan that defines at least one image capture subject and constraints associated with the at least one image capture subject;
determining a progress towards completing the image capture plan based on whether information is received for an image capture occurrence of the at least one image capture subject by an image capture device, wherein multiple image capture occurrences occurring in any order are counted toward completing the image capture plan; and
providing an indication of the compliance progress.

Abstract
A computer-implemented method and system are provided for tracking image capture compliance with an image capture criteria. Method and system aspects of the exemplary embodiment include receiving user-defined criteria for specifying an image capture plan that defines at least one image capture subject and constraints associated with the at least one image capture subject; determining a progress towards completing the image capture plan based on whether information is received for an image capture occurrence of the at least one image capture subject by an image capture device, wherein multiple image capture occurrences occurring in any order are counted toward completing the image capture plan; and providing an indication of the compliance progress.
