COMPLEMENTING LOCATION AS METADATA
First Claim
1. A method of complementing data with spatial data, the method comprising:
- capturing the data with a device;
capturing the spatial data for the device; and
associating the spatial data with the captured data by assigning the spatial data to metadata of the captured data.

Abstract
Embodiments of the invention provide systems and methods for complementing data with spatial data. According to one embodiment, a method of complementing data with spatial data can comprise capturing the data with a device. The spatial data for the device can also be captured. For example, the spatial data can comprise a three coordinate location, a direction in which the device/sensor is oriented, e.g., direction/heading, inclination, etc., when capturing the data, a time at which the data is captured, and/or other information. Capturing the spatial data can comprise determining the spatial data with the device or determining the spatial data with an element of a network communicatively coupled with the device. The spatial data can be associated with the data by assigning the spatial data to metadata of the captured data.

47. A device comprising:
-
a processor; and a memory communicatively coupled with and readable by the processor, the memory having stored therein a series of instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the device to capture data, capture spatial data related to the device, and associate the spatial data with the data by assigning the spatial data to metadata of the captured data. - View Dependent Claims (48, 49, 50)
