DETERMINING GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION OF A SCANNED IMAGE

摘要

A method of determining the geographic location of a hardcopy medium having an image side and a non-image side, includes scanning a hardcopy medium to produce a scanned digital image; scanning the non-image side of the hardcopy medium; detecting a location feature from the scan of the non-image side of the hardcopy medium; using the location feature to determine the geographic location of the scanned digital image; and storing the determined geographic location of the scanned digital image.
