1. A mobile information terminal comprising:
a camera configured to capture an image and output an image signal of the captured image;
an image signal processor configured to generate captured image data based on the image signal;
a GPS signal receiver configured to receive GPS signals;
wireless communication circuitry configured to communicate with an external server via a network;
a display configured to display an image from the captured image data;
a storage configured to store the captured image data; and
control circuitry configured to:
obtain location information indicating where the image was captured using the received GPS signals;
cause the wireless communication circuitry to transmit at least the captured image data and the location information of the captured image to the external server via the network;
cause the wireless communication circuitry to receive stored image data and stored information from the external server via the network, wherein the stored image data and the stored information are stored in the external server; and
display, on the display, both the image from the captured image data and an image from the stored image data,
wherein the control circuitry is further configured to increase a display size of the stored image data received from the external server based on i) determining that a degree of similarity between location information indicating where the stored image data was captured and the location information indicating where the captured image was captured is exceeds a first threshold, ii) determining that a degree of similarity between direction angle information of the mobile information terminal at a time when the stored image data was captured and direction angle information of the mobile information terminal at a time when the captured image was captured is exceeds a second threshold, or iii) determining that a degree of similarity between a distance between a subject in the stored images data and the mobile information terminal at a time when the stored image data was captured and a subject in the captured image data and the mobile information terminal at a time when the captured image was captured exceeds a third threshold.
