Abstract: A system and method are provided for gathering various types of data using a mobile device and organizing such data. Images of text documents can be collected on a mobile device and conveyed to an analysis module for optical character recognition and parsing to categorize and/or classify items of the data. The parsed data items can be entered into a database based on any categories, classifications, identifiers and/or instructions corresponding to the data. Further, image data, text file data, and manually entered data can be conveyed and stored in the database according to categories, classifications, identifiers and/or instructions corresponding to the data to provide for an organized, searchable collection of data.
