A system and method for associating an address for an object is disclosed. A smart address server is provided with a processor and memory. The smart address server is configured to receive a geo location for the object, the geo location indicative of the latitude and longitude of the location of the object. The geo location of the object is converted into a zone, sector, and target portion to generate a ZST location indicator for the object. An elevation portion is appended to the ZST location, to generate a ZSTE location indicator for the object. An object ID is assigned to the object and the object ID is appended to the ZSTE location indicator to generate a smart address for the object. The generated smart address is stored in a data store.

System and method for generating an address indicator for an object based on a location of the object

During an information-extraction technique, a user of an electronic device may be instructed by an application executed by the electronic device (such as a software application) to acquire images, with different orientations (which are known to the user), of a target location on a document using an imaging sensor, which is integrated into the electronic device. After the user has taken a first image and before the user takes a second image in a different orientation of the electronic device (and, thus, the imaging sensor), the electronic device captures multiple images of the document. Then, the electronic device stores the images with associated timestamps. Moreover, after the user has taken the second image, the electronic device analyzes one or more of the first image, the second image and at least a subset of the images to extract information proximate to the target location on the document.

Accurately extracting information based on orthogonal images

An appointment tracking and dynamic modification system is provided that is associated with an appointment scheduling application. A registered attending client/customer is assigned an appointment with a service provider and appointment data associated with the assigned appointment, including data indicating the location of the appointment and the time of the appointment, is obtained. The physical location and/or status of the registered attending client/customer, and/or service provider, is then monitored to calculate an estimated arrival time, and/or availability, of the registered attending client/customer, and/or service provider, at the appointment time and location. If a determination is made that the registered attending client/customer, and/or service provider, is likely to be delayed, or unavailable, at the scheduled time of the appointment, one or more actions are automatically taken to notify the registered attending client/customer, and/or service provider, and/or to reschedule, or otherwise modify, the scheduled appointment in accordance with appointment modification rules.
