Abstract
The presently claimed invention relates generally to encoding imagery and video. One claim recites a method including: obtaining data representing an image or video captured from an aerial platform; and utilizing a multi-purpose computer processor configured to: control communication of the data; and steganographically encode the data to include information representing polynomial coefficients associated with at least one geographic dimension. Other combinations and claims are provided as well.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- receiving data representing an image or video;
- and
- utilizing a multi-purpose computer processor, steganographically encoding the data to include information representing polynomial coefficients associated with at least one geographic dimension.
A programmed computing device storing instructions in memory, the instructions comprising:
- instructions for receiving data representing an image or video;
- and
- instructions for utilizing a multi-purpose computer processor programmed as a steganographic encoder, steganographically encoding the data to include information representing polynomial coefficients associated with at least one geographic dimension.
A computer readable media comprising instructions stored thereon, that if executed, cause a multi-purpose computer to perform operations comprising:
- receiving data representing an image or video;
- and
- utilizing a multi-purpose computer processor, steganographically encoding the data to include information representing polynomial coefficients associated with at least one geographic dimension.
An apparatus comprising:
- electronic memory configured to buffer data representing an image or video;
- and
