Systems, methods, devices, media, and computer-readable instructions are described for local image tagging and processing in a resource-constrained environment such as a mobile device. In some embodiments, characteristics associated with images are used to determine whether to store content (e.g., images and video clips) as ephemeral content or non-ephemeral content. Based on the determination, the image is stored in a non-ephemeral camera roll storage of the mobile device, or an ephemeral local application storage. Additional storage operations such as encryption or backup copying may additionally be determined and performed based on the analysis of the content. In some embodiments, such images may be indexed, sorted, and searched based on the image tagging operations used to characterize the content.

A system for interactive searching of an information is disclosed. The system includes a scanning module configured to enable a user to scan a view when in a location. The system includes a search module which is configured to activate a search for an information of an image of the scanned view of the predefined location, and detect a geo-marker in the scanned view of the predefined location. The system further includes a server which is configured to receive an access request of an information associated with the marker when the marker is detected by the search module, create a marker for the scanned view of the location when the marker is undetected by the search module, verify the authority of the user to access the information associated with the marker based on one or more parameters and provide the information associated with the marker to an authorized user.

Described herein is a method of controlling soil moisture, water accumulation and fertilizer distribution in land. Elevation location data for land areas are extracted from two or more pixels of a topographic image including topographic data. Each pixel represents a land area. Wetness indices for the land areas are determined from the elevation and location data, based on the slope between two or more defined areas of land and an upslope contributing area per unit contour length. At risk defined areas of land, e.g., those at risk of accumulating water are identified based on wetness indices. Water is transported from the at risk defined areas of land to another location. The transporting of water reduces the risk of accumulating water in the at risk defined areas of land and improves crop growth potential in those areas.

A computer system comprising one or more processors and computer-readable media operatively connected thereto, having stored thereon instructions for carrying out the steps of: maintaining one or more databases comprising first electronic data comprising digitally created reference compact electronic representations for each of a plurality of reference electronic works and second electronic data associated with the reference electronic works and related to action information corresponding thereto; obtaining a first digitally created compact electronic representation comprising one or more extracted feature vectors of a first electronic work; identifying a matching reference electronic work by comparing the first digitally created compact electronic representation of the first electronic work with the first electronic data using a sub-linear search of the first electronic data; determining the action information corresponding to the matching reference electronic work based on the second electronic data; and associating the determined action information with the first electronic work.

A system includes a storage unit that stores history information associating a device executed processing and processed data with each other, a screen display unit that displays a screen in which at least one piece of history information is displayed and that is used for causing the device to execute processing based on the history information selected from the displayed at least one piece of history information, a generating unit that generates instruction information for instructing the device to execute the processing of data corresponding to the history information, a processing executing unit that executes the processing of the data based on the instruction information, and a recording unit that records the device that executed the processing and the processed data in the storage unit as the history information based on the instruction information for instructing the processing of the data executed by the processing executing unit.

An image management system includes a computing platform including a hardware processor and a system memory storing an image customization software code, and a database of personas assumable by a user, the database communicatively coupled to the image customization software code. The hardware processor executes the image customization software code to receive a wireless signal associating a persona stored in the database with the user, receive a digital image including an image of the user, and detect the image of the user in the digital image. The hardware processor further executes the image customization software code to obtain the persona from the database, and output a customized image to be rendered on a display, where the persona modifies the image of the user in the customized image.

Method of retrieving event information is presented. Memento objects can be recognized by an archive engine. Based on the recognition, the archive engine obtains information related to the memento object, possibly one or more recognizable features, and uses the information to search for events associated with a timeline that have corresponding tags. The archive engine can then return the event information as a result set to a user.
