System, Method, and Apparatus for Capturing, Securing, Sharing, Retrieving, and Searching Data
First Claim
1. A method for capturing, securing, sharing, retrieving, and searching data comprising:
- providing a software module comprisinga graphical user interface for displaying captured data objects on a display;
an input device module operably connected to two or more input devices to capture data objects;
code for tagging captured data objects;
code for registering an end user; and
an editor and display module;
receiving data objects from the two or more input devices;
capturing the data objects to the editor and display module;
tagging the captured data objects with information selected from the group consisting of text, micro-blogging, voice, geo-references, keywords or a combination thereof;
transmitting the captured data objects to a database for storage in a searchable form;
wherein the software module, the editor and display module, the database and the search module are all operably connected.

Abstract
This present invention relates to a system, method and apparatus for scientists and researchers and others to capture, secure, share, retrieve and search captured data. Said system and method is able to: fully-integrate hardware and software, required to seamlessly capture data inputs; combine edit and display functions from devices into one single edit and display platform; compile captured inputs from devices into text-searchable and tag-able data that can be displayed, edited and searched on one platform; compile captured inputs from devices into text-searchable and tag-able data that can be searchable by using free-text search, advanced search modules, or a combination thereof; provide advanced search modules that can search based on embedded text in files, tags tied to images or files, parallel image search and other intelligent parameter-based search formats; and can be provided as a hosted application, available via a wire line or wireless on-demand service, also referred to as Software as a Service (SaaS) delivery method.
