Abstract: A processor may receive a request to display descriptive information for a location of interest on a device. The processor may retrieve a first set of attributes for the location of interest and compare the retrieved set of attributes to a second set of attributes for a location associated with the device. The processor may reduce the first set of attributes to a reduced set of attributes comprising attributes that are different from the attributes in the second set of attributes. The processor may cause the device to display the reduced set of attributes.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure present devices, methods, and computer readable medium for disambiguating clustered occurrence identifiers. Digital assets contain a plurality of metadata that can be used to identify the occurrence or event during which the digital asset was captured. Techniques can use various types contextual information based on a category of the digital asset for disambiguation. Events can occur at various locations, over a dispersed area and it can be challenging to automatically identify and label the digital assets with the identification of the event. Automatically labelling the digital assets assists user in organizing and sharing the digital assets with friends and family. Users can search for events by event name, performer name, and category.

Abstract: A location control subsystem is provided that allows a user of an electronic device to define the granularity used to provide location coarseness. A user can define a coarse location granularity for an application. When a coarse device location is reported to an application, the location can be provided with at least a minimum degree of variable specificity based on the selected location coarseness. When an application is granted a coarse location, the application is to interpret the provided location indicating that the user may be anywhere within a geographic region of variable specificity, as opposed to being close to a center point with a horizontal accuracy based on the precision of the location fix, as when a fine granularity location is provided. In addition to reducing the spatial resolution of the location that is reported to the application, the temporal resolution may also be reduced.
