Abstract

An image (e.g., a picture) is received from a communication device. The image has associated metadata that is captured while the image is taken. For example, the metadata may be a location, a date, and a time of the picture. One or more object(s) (e.g., a car) along with characteristics of the object(s) in the image are identified. For example, a characteristic may be an action associated with the object, such as a person is running. In response to analyzing the one or more objects for the one or more characteristics in conjunction with the metadata, one or more potential workflows are determined (e.g., a workflow to call the police). A list that identifies the one or more potential workflows is sent to the communication device. Input to select one of the one or more workflows is received, which initiates the selected workflow.
