Fortunately, manual geotagging of an enormous number of images on the globe remains a tedious and lasting task despite the continuing development of geotagging gadgets. At the same time, customers provide label explanations for their photos regularly, which can contain helpful geographic indications. In this paper we investigate the use of comments for the collection of images. Using a collection of more than 1,000,000 geotagged pictures, we create area probability maps for tag explanations worldwide. These guides reflect the aggregate photography and labelling practises of thousands of customers around the world. We study the geographical entropy and recurrence of customer labels as highlights and investigate the usefulness of using these highlights to choose geologically significant comments in a probabilistic system. We show that geosignificant tags recognise the semantic importance of the label itself, and that by analysing the label maps itself, we can figure out which labels are urban areas or countries. In addition, client explanations alone are used to interpret the field of images with great precision. Keywords: Geo tagging, image processing, information retrieval,Steganography; I. INTRODUCTION We live in an age of data contacted by innovation, whether it's work, fun, travel or correspondence in all parts of our reality. The extent to which data penetrate our lives today is evident from the growth of individual and local Internet impressions, the continuous improvement of correspondence methods, and the rapid advancement of Internet members (such as Flickr®, TwitterTM and Facebook) in virtual partnerships[1], among others. In some ways, man changed from a social being to an e-social being. Photos and video show a huge amount of Web data that is added or traded every second. In this explosion of individual and web-based interactive media information, the reputation of computerised cameras and camera phones has added[2]. We can see two distinct profiles of human presence or action on the planet in order to spur our perusers; (a) The world at night, which is caught up in lofty night times, when lit areas address human homes and exercises The user should take note that in Fig. 1 we do not overlay a world guide and the natural eye follows the lands and coastlines. These limits are authentic in Fig. 1(a), where the earth is seen lofty, but just virtual in Fig. 1 (b). Notice the similarity between the two guides, taking a leap in the direction of the more populated areas. www.turkjphysiotherrehabil.org 807 Turkish Journal of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation; 32(3) ISSN 2651-4451 | e-ISSN 2651-446X Fig. 1 Two iconic views of our world. a The World at Night b The Photographed World More notable levels of photographic movement are generally appreciated[3]. Although this is generally true, a few pockets of concentrated energy in the base guide contrast habitats and photography examples, possibly in deserts, stores and public stops where more visitors than inhabitants are without doubt found[4]. [4]. The above is only one example of a useful induction from a wide range of data. It is essential to stress that it is impossible to plan the world images[5] (Fig. 1(b)) without the contribution of persons who geotagged their photographs. This paper therefore honours geotagging and examines how this wonder alters the nature of interactive media research. Geotagging or geo-reference, such as images and recordings on web pages, websites or photometrics sharing, are used to add topographic metadata to different media [2, 4]. [2]. [2]. It can help customers locate a wide range of area-specific data. You can, for example, discover photographs taken near a given area via the geotagging- enabled webcrawler in the scope and longitude coordinates or just by tapping on a Google Maps neighbourhood. Data management systems enabled by geotagging [6] can also be used to discover local news, websites and other resources. Persons have always expected a partner time and a place with pictures. This affiliation was previously more unmistakably demonstrated, for example by composing the date and location of the image on the reverse of the print. Geotagging led to increased geo-consciousness of sound and image repositories and examination networks. During the month, Yahoo Flickr collected some 4.7 million geotagged images and recordings. Flickr allows users to use geolocation data to tag their photos in two ways: as accurate or estimated geological directions via a guideline interface or as topographically significant watchwords. A sophisticated camera or PDA with a GPS receiving sensor may also provide the aid of a computerised camera which is able to communicate with an independent GPS receiver (e.g. via a Bluetooth® connection). Geotagging is also possible. Photographs can also be synchronized with a device for GPS tracking. It has become a genuine test to oversee a particularly overpowering measure of sight and sound information. As of now, business web crawlers and Web collections depend on text comments related with pictures for ordering and recovery assignments. More extravagant and more exact semantic comment would profit numerous applications including picture search, sharing, association, and the executives [7]. Perceiving the requirement for semantic explanation, the most recent variant of the Google™ Picasa™ presently empowers clients to mark pictures as far as faces, spots, and client determined labels, as demonstrated in Fig. 2. Over the most recent quite a while, a significant pattern that has been seen inside sight and sound agreement and PC vision spaces is the expanded accentuation on demonstrating and utilizing relevant data. Logical demonstrating frequently offers a chance to get more influence from information than pixels alone can give[8]. A couple of wellsprings of relevant data are: (I) meta-information caught with pictures or recordings (ii) connections between spatio worldly fragments in mixed media information or (iii) designs in sight and sound assortments all in all Geographic data has been embraced by media and vision scientists inside a relevant displaying structure. Notwithstanding, conceivable outcomes of displaying and removing esteem from topographical setting are numerous and change, as will be talked about. II. RELATED WORKS Currently, there are several experts in the field of social figures research, who select coherent, portable information for the development and conduct of humans.

References [12] recognize clients' significant spots furthermore, practices through their drawn out persistent GPS information [4] utilized the ceaseless area data transferred by remote organization to get clients' area and development mode. Notwithstanding, the significant expense, the restricted improvement of utilization, and upsetting clients' security are the lethal weaknesses of the strategy. Reference [13] attempts to dissect the photographs from versatile and analyzed to the realized beautiful then foresee the client area and achieve the course following as indicated by the time and spatial data. Furthermore, the geotagged photograph informational collection utilized in this paper is transferred by clients themselves with a variety of data, which is more helpful for research. The gathered information should be isolated into different groupings dependent on clients' places and practices. Presently, the SVM order calculation and RBF neural organization [14] are normally utilized. We use LIBSVM [15] and the neural network device provided by Matlab to characterize the information. Soft biometric features can be defined by giving some information about the person, but are lacking the distinctive features and durability to distinguish two individuals sufficiently. Either continual (e.g. height, weight etc) or discrete (e.g. sex, eye colour, ethnicity etc.) can be the soft biometric traits[16]. The term soft biometry was first

  • Mapexif: an Image Scanning and Mapping Tool for Investigators
    MAPEXIF: AN IMAGE SCANNING AND MAPPING TOOL 1 MapExif: an image scanning and mapping tool for investigators Lionel Prat NhienAn LeKhac Cheryl Baker University College Dublin, Belfield, Dublin 4, Ireland MAPEXIF: AN IMAGE SCANNING AND MAPPING TOOL 2 Abstract Recently, the integration of geographical coordinates into a picture has become more and more popular. Indeed almost all smartphones and many cameras today have a built-in GPS receiver that stores the location information in the Exif header when a picture is taken. Although the automatic embedding of geotags in pictures is often ignored by smart phone users as it can lead to endless discussions about privacy implications, these geotags could be really useful for investigators in analysing criminal activity. Currently, there are many free tools as well as commercial tools available in the market that can help computer forensics investigators to cover a wide range of geographic information related to criminal scenes or activities. However, there are not specific forensic tools available to deal with the geolocation of pictures taken by smart phones or cameras. In this paper, we propose and develop an image scanning and mapping tool for investigators. This tool scans all the files in a given directory and then displays particular photos based on optional filters (date/time/device/localisation…) on Google Map. The file scanning process is not based on the file extension but its header. This tool can also show efficiently to users if there is more than one image on the map with the same GPS coordinates, or even if there are images with no GPS coordinates taken by the same device in the same timeline.

WPI routinely publishes these reports on its website without editorial or peer review. For more information about the projects program at WPI, see http://www.wpi.edu/academics/ugradstudies/project-learning.html ii Abstract Many people in North America enjoy capturing the visual, historical, and experiential contexts that landmarks offer as they travel. These individuals, however, use disjoint resources to plan trips, reducing the quality of the narrative experience they receive when visiting a place. To facilitate the narrativization of a place and create a shared experience of that place, I created an Android smartphone application, which allows users to explore basic facts, photographs, historical details, and travelers’ experiences regarding New England’s 117 coastal lighthouses. I developed three image-processing algorithms to serve as photograph filters and conducted two surveys and five usability studies to inform my iterative, audience-involved application design. iii Acknowledgments First and foremost, I thank my two project advisors, Jennifer deWinter and Emmanuel Agu, for their continuous support and dedication towards this project. Jay Hyland of the Lighthouse Preservation Society provided key background information about New England lighthouses in general and an avenue for distributing surveys to members of the society.

  • Pedestrian Navigation with Consideration of Affective Responses Towards the Environment Extracted from Location-Based Social Media Data
    Faculty of Environmental Sciences Institute for Cartography Master Thesis Pedestrian Navigation with consideration of affective responses towards the environment extracted from Location-Based Social Media Data submitted by Madalina Gugulica born on 23.08.1989 in Iasi, Romania submitted for the academic degree of Master of Science (M.Sc.) Date of Submission 15.02.2019 Supervisors Dr. Eva Hauthal Institut für Kartographie, Technische Universität Dresden Univ.Prof. Mag.rer.nat. Dr.rer.nat. Georg Gartner Institut für Geoinformation und Kartographie, Technische Universität Wien Reviewer Prof. Dipl.-Phys. Dr.-Ing. habil. Dirk Burghardt Institut für Kartographie, Technische Universität Dresden ORIGINAL TASK DESCRIPTION Objective Pedestrians’ daily behaviour and decision-making in space is influenced, apart from time and distance factors, by an individual’s subjective interpretation of the environment. Most of the current navigation services, however, employ time-optimized or distance- optimized algorithms and fail to fully meet the needs of the users. Mobile pedestrian nav- igation systems could be enhanced if people’s affective responses to space would be taken into consideration and would be integrated in route planning algorithms. The aim of this master thesis is to expand the “AffectRoute” study conducted by the Re- search Group Cartography within the Technical University of Vienna by exploring the use of location based social media data and natural language processing techniques such as sentiment analysis. The basic idea is to develop a methodology for extracting, modelling and integrating peo- ple’s affective responses to environments into a route planning algorithm and find out if location based social media data could provide enough and relevant information for such a methodology to be feasible and viable.

We have developed an automatic technique that, given as input a geo-tagged photograph, estimates its FOV (Field Of View) and the direction of the camera using a matching algorithm on the photograph edge maps and a rendered view of the mountain silhouettes that should be seen from the observer's point of view. The extraction algorithm then identifies the mountain peaks present in the photograph and their pro- files. We discuss possible applications in social fields such as photograph peak tagging on social portals, augmented reality on mobile devices when viewing a mountain panorama, and generation of collective intelligence sys- tems (such as environmental models) from massive social media collections (e.g. snow water availability maps based on mountain peak states extracted from photograph hosting services). 5 Sommario Proponiamo un sistema per la classificazione di panorami montani e per l'identificazione delle vette presenti in fotografie scattate dagli utenti.
