| 摘要 |
The present disclosure provides a system and method that generates and provides access to communication forums based on metadata associated with images. For example, when a first user captures an image with his or her computing device, the computing device will associate metadata with the image, which may include at least location information and time information. A control server having access to only the metadata may cluster the image individually or with one or more other images that were captured within a threshold proximate distance and a threshold proximate time of where and when the image was captured, respectively. The control server may associate a communication forum with the cluster, such that only users associated with images that are within the cluster are provided access to the communication forum. The user's computing device may then associate the communication forum with the image content stored on the user's computing device. |

1. A method, comprising:
receiving, using one or more processors, metadata associated with a first image, wherein the metadata includes location information as to where the first image was captured; generating, using the one or more processors, a first cluster associated with the first image based on the location information; generating, using the one or more processors, a first communication forum that is associated with the first cluster; and permitting, using the one or more processors, a first user access to the first communication forum only when the first user is associated with a first computing device that was used to capture the first image. |
