An integrated information processing system for geospatial information processing. The information processing system includes a scheduling module, an acquisition module, a production module, a distribution module, a geospatial data specification, and a geospatial media recorder. Each module incorporates a common object database management system. The scheduling module is configured for processing requests for media acquisition. The acquisition module is configured for acquiring visual, audio, textual, and geospatial entity information. The production module is configured for producing integrated digital media datasets and information. The distribution module is configured for distributing integrated digital media datasets and information. The geospatial data specification includes an object class which serves to provide geospatial referencing of an entity or object. The concatenated data attribute of geospatial data serves to geospatially reference entities or object in a video segment. The geospatial media recorder serves to encode geospatial data onto video frames at the time of video acquisition. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION The present invention is an integrated information processing system for geospatial media information processing. The information processing system includes a scheduling module, an acquisition module, a production module, a distribution module, a geospatial data specification, and a geospatial media recorder. Each module incorporates a common object database management system. The scheduling module is a specially configured module suitable for processing requests for media acquisition. The acquisition module is a specially configured module suitable for acquiring visual, audio, textual, and geospatial entity information. The production module is a specially configured module suitable for producing integrated digital media, datasets, and information. The distribution module is a specially configured module suitable for distributing integrated digital media metadata, datasets, and information. The geospatial data specification serves to provide geospatial referencing of an entity or object in a video segment. The geospatial media recorder serves to encode geospatial referencing elements onto video frames at the time of video acquisition. Accordingly, it is a principal object of the invention to provide an integrated information processing system for processing visual, audio, textual and geospatial data. It is another object of the invention to provide an integrated information processing system for processing geospatial media data. It is a further object of the invention to provide an integrated information processing system capable of convergent distribution of data to any media outlet. Still another object of the invention is to provide an integrated information processing system capable of providing acquisition of geospatial entities, such as geospatial temporal referencing. It is an object of the invention to provide improved elements and arrangements thereof in an apparatus for the purposes described which is inexpensive, dependable and fully effective in accomplishing its intended purposes
