Abstract

Apparatuses, methods, systems, and program products are disclosed for photo cluster detection and compression. An image module receives a set of images captured using a camera. A subset module determines a subset of the set of images based on a timestamp associated with each image of the set of images. The subset of images includes a plurality of images having a timestamp within a predefined time range. A compression module compresses the subset of images such that the compressed subset of images uses less storage space than the subset of images.
