Abstract
The invention relates to a method for associating an object in an image with an asset of a number of assets in a financial application. The method includes receiving the image of the object comprising global positioning system (GPS) data, where the image is captured using an image-taking device with GPS functionality and processing the image to generate processed GPS data. The method further includes determining, using the processed GPS data, a geographic location of the object in the image, and identifying, using the geographic location, the object by performing a recognition analysis of the image. The method further includes associating, based on the recognition analysis, the object in the image with the asset of the assets of an owner in the financial application, and storing, in the financial application, the image of the object associated with the asset of the assets of the owner.
