Abstract: Systems and methods for providing for visualization and analysis of geospatial data are described. An example method includes automatically generating a first map comprising a plurality of layers that each comprise part of the input data, providing a graphical user interface for receiving at least one selection from the user of one or more of the plurality of layers of the first map for display and an indication that the user has zoomed in on the first map to a first area featuring a symbol corresponding to an item of interest, and automatically generating, based on bounds of the dataset, a second map showing a second area of a bounding shape selected to fit the data related to the item of interest.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing for visualization and analysis of geospatial data are described. An example method includes receiving input data comprising at least geospatial data; automatically generating a first map comprising a plurality of layers, each comprising part of the input data; providing a graphical user interface (GUI) for receiving selection(s) from a user of one or more layers of the first map for display; automatically generating a second map based on the selection(s); and causing display of the second map on a client device. Input data may originate from several data sources and include documents from a search and analytics engine. The map's visual properties are configurable based on user input via the GUI or a configuration. The example method combines server-side clustering and client-side symbolization to seamlessly create maps showing data of arbitrary size. The example method provides real-time full-text searching of map data of any size.

Abstract: Computer-implemented techniques for efficiently inserting high dimensional data into a tree data structure while managing hardware memory usage are presented. The techniques include accessing an electronically stored tree data structure indexing data having a dimension greater than three: electronically storing a node size threshold value, a memory consumption threshold value, a percentage overlap threshold value, a squareness threshold value, and a child node count threshold value; obtaining high dimensional data for insertion into the tree data structure; selecting a node of the tree data structure for insertion of the high dimensional data; inserting the high dimensional data into a node of the tree data structure; and determining, based on the node size threshold, the memory consumption threshold, the percentage overlap threshold the squareness threshold, and the child node count threshold, whether to split the node of the tree data structure.

Abstract: In accordance with a particular embodiment of the invention, a request for a geotag comprising situational information and geographic coordinates may be received from a requestor. The request may include geospatial data, such as position data and viewing angle data, that identifies a location of the requester. The position data may be latitude data, longitude data, and/or elevation data, and the viewing angle data may be azimuth data, compass direction data, and/or orientation data. The geographic coordinates of a candidate geotag may be compared to the location received in the request. If the candidate geotag is near the location received in the request, it may be sent to the requestor.

Abstract: In accordance with a particular embodiment of the invention, a method for geotagging an image includes receiving an image of a real-world scene. Location information may be received corresponding to the image. The location information may identify the location of the real-world scene. The image may be synchronized with the location information corresponding to the image such that a two-dimensional point on the image corresponds to a three-dimensional location in the real world at the real-world scene. A geotag may be received. The geotag may tag the image at the image at the two-dimensional point and provide additional information concerning the real-world scene. The geotag and the three-dimensional location in the real world at the real-world scene may be stored in a geotag database.

Abstract: According to an embodiment, a mobile communication device comprises a client and a server. The client is operable to directly request information from another communication device when access to a centralized server is unavailable. The direct request bypasses the centralized server and passes through a wireless communication channel. The server is operable to directly provide information to another communication device in response to a request from the other communication device. The direct providing of information bypasses the centralized server and passes through a wireless communication channel. The mobile communication device is further operable to send requests to the centralized server when the centralized server is available.

Abstract: In accordance with a particular embodiment of the invention, a video frame comprising an image may be synchronized with a context area generated by a three-dimensional visualization tool. The context area may be selected according to location information identifying a location shown in the video frame. The video frame may be overlaid on the context area substantially at the location shown in the video frame to yield a synchronized image that may be displayed on a display.

Abstract: In accordance with a particular embodiment of the invention, a method includes receiving a data stream. The data stream includes a video stream. The video stream includes one or more video frames captured by a video camera. Each video frame presents an image of a real-world scene. The data stream also includes positional information of the video camera corresponding to the video stream. The positional information of the video camera may then be extracted from the data stream. The positional information of the video camera may be synchronized with the one or more video frames such that a two-dimensional point on the image corresponds to a three-dimensional location in the real world at the real-world scene.
