Value Proposition:

Enable the creation of single image repository on the fly, sourced from multiple public and private repositories
Provide enhanced productivity in the creation of such on the fly repositories through the use of algorithmic and pattern driven searches of image metadata and images themselves
Provide date and period search functionality using confidence intervals around assigned dates and periods
Provide mapping functionality to tie images to rigorous geolocation, with confidence intervals placed on the geolocation point
