Remote GeoSystems Secures Patent for Embedding Continuous GPS Data in Video Files Using Software-based Methods

  • Rating12345

FORT COLLINS, Colorado, USA, – Remote GeoSystems, Inc., a leading provider of geospatial full motion video mapping software and recording solutions, announces the award of US Patent Number 12,244,844 for using software-based methods for taking video and GPS log files and combining them to create a single video file with continuously-embedded GPS location data throughout the video.

These software-based methods differ from existing methods that require complex and expensive gyro-stabilized gimbal cameras and specialized video recording hardware – usually mounted on manned aircraft platforms – during the video recording mission.

This patent, and its functional availability in the company’s LineVision software, solves a long-standing challenge for many users trying to incorporate video from small drones, action cameras, cell phones and other consumer-oriented video cameras into professional GIS and defense-oriented mapping software.

Using the intuitive and affordable software, even non-technical users can easily associate a previously captured GPS log file with a previously recorded video file, and with just a few clicks output a single video file embedded with the GPS data, such as a MISB/STANAG 4609-spec .TS file.

The patent also applies to live streaming scenarios where a video feed and a GPS data feed are received in separate streams from a remote location by the LineVision software for real-time visualization, embedding and recording.

Patent Number 12,244,844 is the sixth US Patent issued to Remote Geosystems. To learn more about this and other Remote GeoSystems patents, please visit https://remotegeo.com/patents/.
