Abstract
A method is provided for augmenting a set of image recordings in which, in addition to making image recordings (95), location data (175) is recorded for locations for which the user desires an, or a further, image recording. This desired-image-recording location data is subsequently used to retrieve one or more corresponding image recordings from a service system (40).
