System and Method for Medical Diagnosis Using Geospatial Location Data Integrated with Biomedical Sensor Information
First Claim
1. A method of operation of a device having memory and a communications module comprising:
- receiving at least one location signal with the communications module;
storing geospatial data obtained at least from the at least one location signal with a time stamp in memory;
receiving a plurality of biomedical signals over time from at least one sensor with the communications module;
storing biomedical data from the received biomedical signal with a time stamp in memory; and
repeating the receiving at least one location signal and storing geospatial data from the at least one location signal in different geographic locations.

Abstract
In at least one embodiment, a method and system for accumulating geospatial location data and biomedical data for an individual during his/her travels is provided. In at least one embodiment, a device uses at least one location signal to determine geospatial data and receives a plurality of biomedical signals with both data types being stored for possible later retrieval for providing a diagnosis for the individual if a medical condition arises. An embodiment of the invention provides a method of operation of a device having at least a memory and a communications module where the method includes receiving at least one location signal with the communications module; storing geospatial data obtained at least from the at least one location signal with a time stamp in memory; receiving a plurality of biomedical signals over time from at least one sensor with the communications module; storing biomedical data from the received biomedical signal with a time stamp in memory; and repeating the receiving at least one location signal and storing geospatial data from the at least one location signal in different geographic locations.
