description

Currently, photographs are an indispensable means for documenting and surveying objects and places, however, they have an inherent limitation due to a lack of identification data. Digital applications on a photograph could resolve this limitation. This paper, therefore, details the results of a research based on an innovative photographic system, with the purpose of identifying objects in digital photos. To carry out this procedure, this is achieved by partly utilizing a Location Based Service. The final product, obtained from the user in real time with a simple shot of the photo, constitutes a small information system, which enables the analysis of the images of places and objects in an interactive way, and their association to related information. Furthermore, it enables additional functions, such as the connection of individual objects to websites for further and more in depth analysis; framing of objects; research of objects or categories of objects within photographic archives, highlighting the result within the image
