20160116574 | GROUND-BASED GEO-REFERENCED INTERFEROMETRIC RADAR - A system and method for geo-referencing a main measuring instrument which operates in an Instrument Coordinate System. The method includes the steps of deploying the main measuring instrument on a deployment surface. An auxiliary measuring instrument is used to measure the position of a plurality of external reference points in a Master Coordinate System as well as a plurality of local reference points on the main measuring instrument in the Master Coordinate System. An inclinometer associated with the main measuring instrument, obtains an orientation reading for the deployed main measuring instrument. A processor then uses the orientation reading and the measured positions of the external reference points and the local reference points on the main measuring instrument, to geo-reference the main measuring instrument so that measurements made therewith are automatically output in the Master Coordinate System. | 04-28-2016 |

20100146500 | Method and system for installing a software application on a mobile computing device - A method is disclosed of installing a software application, typically a security application such as a one-time password application, on a mobile computing device such as a mobile telephone or PDA. The method comprises creating an account for a user on a network, the account having user identification data including a user name, a user e-mail address and an address of a mobile computing device of the user. An invitation message is transmitted to the user, the invitation including a link to an installation web page. A deployment server supporting the installation web page receives an initial request from the user to install the software application, transmits data to the mobile computing device of the user and receives a response from the mobile computing device, from which one or more characteristics of the mobile computing device can be determined. When a confirmatory request is received at the deployment server from the mobile computing device to install the software application, the software application is transmitted to the mobile computing device and installed on it. The mobile computing device can then function like a dedicated hardware token. | 06-10-2010 |
