20100293193 | DOCUMENT GEOSPATIAL SHAPE TAGGING, SEARCHING, ARCHIVING, AND RETRIEVAL SOFTWARE - Disclosed is a document geospatial tagging, searching, archiving, and retrieval software system. The software system includes a tool that tags electronic documents with a geospatial tag. The geospatial tag indicates the shape and the geospatial points, in order, that define the location and extent of the geospatial location associated with an electronic document. Each point in the geospatial tag may be comprised of an X coordinate value, a Y coordinate value, an elevation/height value, and a date and time value. Electronic documents may be tagged manually by the user, automatically by the software application creating the document, or via a tagging search engine that searches files for geospatial location data and then tags each file with the results of the search. Once the electronic documents have been geospatially tagged, a search engine may search a network, either an intranet or the Internet, in order to locate electronic documents associated with a user desired geospatial location. After electronic documents associated with a desired geospatial location have been found and retrieved, the electronic documents may be stored on an archival storage system for future use. The documents may also be moved to a different electronic storage device/location for easy access by the user. The documents may also be sorted according to different aspects of the geospatial tag linked to each document. Different types of sorts are possible using the geospatial data contained in the geospatial tag, including: sorting by size of the geospatial area, sorting by elevation/height values, date and time values, and the type of shape of the geospatial area. | 11-18-2010 |
