Abstract
An image archiving facility creates an image and other data archive relating to an event at a location when prompted by a downloaded application for a host user. The host user may approve guest users to upload to the archive. Approval may come from an image of a person uploaded to the data archive and recognized from biometric data as an approved user. The host may control viewing of images in the archive either individually or generically.
Claims13
A method of creating an event gallery archive, the method including the steps of:
- a first host user after downloading an application from a remote source and installing the application to a first host user mobile device, creating, in a repository at a remote server device, information relating to an event at a specified location or at a current first host user location;
- and
- one or more guest users located at the event location, the one or more guest users after downloading the application and installing the application to their mobile device being identified and being granted permission to asynchronously store information relating to the event including images relating to the event to the repository,
- wherein the stored information in the repository is wholly or separately authorized by said first host user to be available for viewing by at least selected guest users of the one or more guest users, and wherein the method further comprises
- providing a first user interface for the first host user mobile device;
- receiving an event reference for a new event;
- automatically obtaining a current first host user mobile device location;
- and
- sending data indicative of the event reference and the first host user mobile device location to the remote server device for creating an event entry for the event in a remote event database.

A system for creating an event gallery archive, the system including:
- a first user device in the form of a mobile device, the first user device comprising a first processor and a first non-transitory computer readable medium comprising code, executable by the first processor to perform first operations comprising:
- after downloading an application from a remote source and installing the application to the first user device, creating, in a repository at a remote server device, information relating to an event at a specified location or at a current first host user location;
- providing a first user interface for the first user device;
- receiving an event reference for a new event;
- automatically obtaining a current first user device location;
- and
- sending data indicative of the event reference and current first user device location to the remote server device for creating an event entry for the event in a remote event database;
- and
- one or more guest user devices, comprising one or more second processors and one or more second non-transitory computer-readable media, the one or more second non-transitory computer-readable media comprising code, executable by the one or more second processors to perform second operations comprising:
- after downloading the application and installing the application to the one or more guest user devices, the one or more guest user devices being identified and being granted permission to asynchronously store information relating to the event and including images relating to the event to the repository,
- wherein the stored information in the repository is wholly or separately authorized by a first host user to be available for viewing by at least selected guest users of the one or more guest users.
