Patent ID: 8595617

Claim:
A computer-implemented method for dynamic linking between a graphic document and a comment database comprising: recording in non-transitory memory a base graphic representation of a project; linking, by a computer system, a coordinate overlay grid of a coordinate overlay program having a linked data storage structure for overlay position coordination and display with respect to said base graphic representation, wherein said coordinate overlay program has a notation subprogram linked or mapped to said coordinate overlay grid enabling a user to identify a coordinate position on said coordinate overlay grid with an assigned symbol and identifier; recording at least a text comment data record in said linked data storage structure referenced to said identifier, wherein the linked data storage structure comprises a database; accessing and providing for display the text comment data record in a worldwide web format document at least in part by activating said linked data storage structure for a desired coordinate position found by detecting the movement of a cursor over said base graphic representation on a display by the user to a location having an assigned symbol and identifier, wherein the worldwide web format document is configured to receive: user comment data correction, user comment additions, user comment deletions, user approval, and completion annotation; identifying, by the computer system, differences between the base graphic representation of the project and at least one other graphic representation; and providing, by the computer system, a query program configured to selectively search and access a plurality of databases and to return database records pertinent to specific project activities.
