Abstract
A method using a field-accessed database system identifies an object by a data identifier, and stores and/or retrieves object data using the associated data identifier. In one mode of operation, a field terminal uploads to a database object-based data and employs the associated data identifier to group the uploaded object data with object data relating to other objects having substantially similar data identifiers. In another mode of operation, the system identifies one or more data products stored in a database and previously grouped according to an identified object's data identifier, and a field terminal downloads from database one or more data products related to the identified object and processes downloaded data products for user access. In another mode of operation, called discover mode, field terminal selects data products in a database using a selection algorithm based on terminal location and downloads these data products from this database, prior to receiving user input used to select final data products of interest to access using field terminal.
