Five embodiments are disclosed. The first may generate and/or manage reference objects in images. The second may use the reference objects to create 3-D simulations of landscapes, urban settings, architectural models, land management presentations, disaster analysis and/or interactive games. The third may use the reference objects and/or previously presented object schematics to construct provably impartial mug shot folders for law enforcement, alter security processes to support communication of object schematics with a database used to identify people, and/or modify that database to use object schematics. The fourth may access an image with a focal length spread to generate one or more derived images to find the reference images and the items of interest for human facial/body recognition based upon realistic parameters of the reference objects to create/alter the object schematics. The fifth may implement combinations of two or more of the previous four embodiments.
