System and method for targeted messaging, workflow management, and digital rights management for geofeeds

Abstract

The disclosure relates to systems and methods for targeted messaging, workflow management, and digital rights management for geofeeds, including content that is related to geographically definable locations and aggregated from a plurality of social media or other content providers. The system may facilitate targeted messaging to users who create content. The targeted messaging may be based on the content (or location related to the content) such as a request for additional information or a promotional message. The system may generate workflows that allow management of the content with respect to operational processes of an entity that wishes to use the content and facilitates the management of usage rights related to the content as well as payments related to such usage rights. For example, the system may store whether content requires permission to use the content and/or whether such permission was obtained and facilitates payment.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The disclosure relates to systems and methods for targeted messaging, workflow management, and digital rights management for geofeeds, including content that is related to geographically definable locations and aggregated from a plurality of social media or other content providers.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]The availability of content such as videos, audio files, photos, text, and / or other content over networks such as the Internet has grown at impressive rates. Many Internet and other online service providers make this type of content available to enable users to post and share such content through their services. However, various limitations exist with respect to how this vast amount of information can be effectively monitored and / or selectively displayed.[0003]Because of the vast amount of information and different ways in which to communicate with users, it can be difficult to communicate with creators of the content. Furthermore, it may be diff...
