Geo-referenced Digital Photograph Library

摘要

We have proposed a MPEG-7 based annotation architect-ture, Dozen Dimensional Digital Content (DDDC), specially designed for facilitating the managing, browsing and retrieving of personal digital photograph collections. In this paper, we explain the concept and structure of our MPEG-7 based geo-referenced digital photograph library prototype system, named PARIS (Personal Archiving and Retrieving Image System). In addition to utilizing the temporal information recorded directly from image devices, our approach integrates spatial coordinates to realize novel retrieving methodology with geo-referenced photograph collections.
