Systems and methods for aggregating media related to an event

A system for aggregating media, comprising:

• a server equipped with a processor and non-volatile memory and having an event database stored in the non-volatile memory which contains a plurality of events, wherein each of the plurality of events has a temporal window and a geofence associated with it;
• and
• a software application provided in a second non-volatile memory and distributable to a plurality of mobile technology platforms, each of which is equipped with a display, an input device, and a further non-volatile memory capable of storing a copy of said software application, wherein the copy of said software application, when installed in the further non-volatile memory, provides instructions to a further processor associated with the mobile technology platform for the mobile technology platform to communicate with the server and:
• (a) send a request to create an event to the server based on an action detected by the input device associated with the mobile technology platform, wherein said event is stored in the event database in response to the request,
• (b) monitor current location of the mobile technology platform,
• (c) send at least one instance of media captured by the mobile technology platform to the server, wherein the at least one instance of media is captured by the mobile technology platform based on a further interaction with the input device of the mobile technology platform, and wherein a date, time, and location are associated with the at least one instance of media, wherein the server is configured to:
• (a) associate the at least one instance of media with the event if the at least one instance of media was captured at a date, time and location that are within the temporal window and the geofence associated with the event,
• (b) aggregate at least a portion of all captured media associated with the event into a collection of media associated with the event, and
• (c) provide access to the collection to at least one mobile technology platform having a copy of said software application stored in its further nonvolatile memory.
