ABSTRACT:
Digital watermarking technology is used in conjunction with video captured from airborne platforms (e.g., satellites, remotely controlled aerial vehicles and aircraft). One claim recites an airborne platform comprising: a camera for capturing video depicting at least a portion of the earth's surface; and an electronic processor. The electronic processor is programmed for: obtaining geographical metadata associated with captured video; encoding first digital watermarking in the captured video through alterations to data representing the captured video, in which the first digital watermarking is generally imperceptible to a human observer of the captured video when rendered to the human observer in real time, and in which the first digital watermarking comprises or links to the geographical metadata; and controlling transmission of digital watermarked video to a remotely located receiver on or in the earth's surface. Another claim recites: that the electronic processor is further programmed for: hiding second digital watermarking in data representing the captured video, the second digital watermarking comprising a plural-bit payload that includes data representing a refinement relative to at least some of the geographical metadata. Other claims and combinations are provided too.
