Abstract
This specification describes technologies relating to capturing an image. In general, one aspect of the subject matter described in this specification can be embodied in a device that includes a camera, a GPS receiver, and an application. The application is executed by a data processing apparatus that interacts with the camera, the GPS receiver, and one or more remote servers, to perform operations comprising: activating the camera; presenting, in a display of the device, a digital presentation of a document; guiding a user to capture an image of the document, including presenting, within the display, a user interface feature that visually frames a particular subset of information that is included in the document with other information; capturing the image of the document when the particular subset of information is focused in the camera's view; and uploading the captured image of the document to the one or more remote servers.
