1. A video archival system comprising:
- a computer network capable of receiving and transmitting data;
a plurality of mobile personal computing devices, each including a camera, an antenna, a processor, memory storage storing a first mobile application, and a positional reference device;
said mobile personal computing devices wirelessly connected to said computer network such that it is capable of delivering data from said mobile device to said network;
a stationary computing device including a database server with memory storage storing a second mobile application, a processor, and an archive database;
said stationary computing device connected to said computer network such that it is capable of delivering data from said mobile device to said network;
wherein data is transmitted from said plurality of multiple personal computing devices to said computer network and is received by said stationary computing device and stored onto said archive database in a front-end mobile application of said system;
characteristic data embedded into each of said slices, said characteristic data capable of identifying the mobile personal computing device from which said slice originated;
wherein said slices are stored in said archive database based upon which mobile device said slices originated;
wherein said slices are stored such that adjacent sections of captured video-data are contiguous;
a computing device including a video review back-end application wherein said video data is categorized and inspected by an expert, and results of said categorization and inspection are embedded into said video data;
said computing device video review back-end application including a determination of location via longitude and latitude using video collected from said front-end mobile application;
said computing device video review back-end application determining if the video is within a current site software installation, routing the video to an appropriate emergency authority with the location; and
if said video is not within a current site software installation, routing the recorded video to a call center specialist for contacting an appropriate public safety answer point jurisdiction for an emergency response based upon the location of the submitted video.

Abstract
A system and method for recording, uploading, and archiving video recordings, including a front-end and a back-end application. The preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a front-end application wherein video is recorded using a mobile device. The recorded video is embedded with date, time and GPS location data. The video is stored on an online back-end database which catalogs the video according to the embedded data elements. The video may be selectively reviewed by relevant experts or emergency personnel for immediate response to the uploaded video and/or distribution to the proper parties. The video may also be archived for later review and use by any number of end-users.
