Systems and methods for aligning event data

A system comprising:

• a recording device configured to perform first operations comprising:
• maintaining a first time;
• recording event data during the first time, wherein the event data is marked with the first time;
• periodically wirelessly broadcasting a plurality of alignment beacons while the event data is recorded, the plurality of alignment beacons comprising:
• a first alignment beacon that includes first alignment data;
• and
• a second alignment beacon that includes second alignment data:
• storing the first alignment data with a first current time of the first time in a memory of the recording device;
• and
• storing the second alignment data with a second current time of the first time in the memory of the recording device:
• a body-worn camera configured to perform second operations comprising:
• maintaining a second time independent of the first time;
• recording video data during the second time, wherein the video data is marked with the second time;
• while the video data is recorded, wirelessly receiving the second alignment beacon from the recording device;
• and
• storing the second alignment data with a second current time of the second time in a memory of the body-worn camera;
• and
• a server configured to perform third operations, comprising:
• receiving the event data, the first alignment data, the first current time of the first time, the second alignment data, and the second current time of the first time from the recording device;
• receiving the video data, the second alignment data, and the second current time of the second time from the body-worn camera;
• and
• determining the event data is related to the video data based on the second alignment data received from the recording device and the second alignment data received from the body-worn camera, wherein;
• a portion of the first alignment data is different from the second alignment data;
• the first alignment data and the second alignment data are each different from the event data;
• and
• the second current time of the second time is different from the second current time of the first time.
