Most excellent thing ever! I like how fast it imported already tagged photos and of course, the permission levels. That will be of help also for the "where am I" groups.

At the beginning of the process, it said I had 480 or so geotagged photos. Then as it was showing the progress, the final number was something like 243. So the feedback Organizr gave seemed right at first but then got confused. Or is there a bug somewhere?

Will there be a little "Map This" button that appears on pages for photos that are geotagged?

Beej, I'm not sure that I understand completely, but if a photo has been geotagged, the location and map link show up down in the "Additional Information."

allanimal, can you paste in the URL of a photo that you expected to show up on a map but didn't? We can then review and see what's what.

Uhm ... I could not find this in the FAQ, and trial & error with the "Search for a location" field didn't work either:
How do I navigate to a given set of coordinates?
I finally managed to do so by clicking on the "Link to this" button and then butchering the "Lat=" and "Lon=" parameters in the browser's location bar, but I think that can't be the recommended method.

the feature is probably great but it freezes my Firefox 1.5 with the "loading..." message.
also suddenly every since this was implemented many other things stopped working under "Organize", for example when I select any Set that I want to edit then at the point it shows my pictures in the selected Set it also removes left hand side of the screen so that I can no longer see the title and so on but most importantly the "Save" button disappears hence I can't save my changes.

One more thing that undoubtedly I have just overlooked, but is it possible to view the lat/lon for a photo that someone has marked in the organizer map but has not explicitly "geotagged"?
Posted 24 months ago.
( permalink

dropping a photo onto an organizr mag is geotagging. if you can see that a photo as been dropped onto a map, you should be able to see the lat and long.

Beej_J's question is the flipside of mine. It'd be really nice to be able to both view and directly edit lat/lon values.

Beej and I have been talking about how it would be nice to still get at lat/long information. Some ideas we tossed around (which sound very hard to me) would be on the More properties page or have the option to display the info as tags.

Heather -- how? I can see the locations plotted on a map, but I don't see how to directly get lat/lon on mapped images.

When you're looking at your photos in Organizr, double-click one. You'll see a new Location tab along the top of that window. In there is your lat/long. (We're thinking about other places where it might be nice to reveal the lat/long around the site too.)

Besides my thousands of precisely-geotagged photos, I have several thousand photos tagged with just a city and state. I'd love to be able to add those to the map but have the lat/lon information not have as many digits of precision as those photos which are precisely located.
The screencast mentions something about how the level of zoom at which you drag something onto the map determines the level of zoom at which the photo appears at - to prevent photos from appearing at too-exact a location. How is this data encoded?

3e - If I'm reading your question correctly, I think the answer you're after is that we record an accuracy level as well as lat/long for your geotagged photos. So, say, you search for all your photos tagged with City, State, and drop them on a high zoom level, we record the actual lat/long of your drop point, and "blur" that with the accuracy level.
Make sense?

This is cool stuff for sure and way ahead of the curve, as usual ;)
Importing was a snap. Slow due to traffic spike sure, but flawless!
Thanks for adding such a feature. This rox!
Some things I have noticed thus far. Note: this is not hindering my ability to use the new map feature. Just wanted to share:
1.) 800x600 screen resolution makes organizer even more mad now that map is here. For example, the nav slider. I can't zoom in. I can double click though ;) Can we get the ability to resize the horizontal frames?
2.) Organizer would not load until I set my map preferences.
(By not load, I mean: I waited 2 minutes then as a hunch, went to the preference setting, made the preference update and waited for the update to process. Only then did Organizer load fast as usual)
3.) I had to select all images and re-apply my map preference.
Maybe a cache issue...
4.) The expected behaviour of the mouse when dragging an image to the map is un-expected. The mouse pointer no longer becomes the focus of the point. The little blue sunburst thingy does. That took some getting used to.
Again, awesome work by all those involved to get this working so well!

Cool, I didn't notice that.
Now how can I do the trick with multiple photos at once?
Say, I have 20 photos, all taken at the same location. I can't drag them to the map because the map resolution is so poor for Germany, but I have the precise geo location (from multimap.com *g*).
I select them all, but when I double-click one of them, the selection is cleared and I end up editing only the single photo I double-clicked. I select them all again, go to "Batch organize", click "Location" / "Add photos to the map", and it kicks me back to Findr, saying I shall drag them to the map.
I wouldn't mind to double-click each photo, paste the location info from the clipboard, save it, double-click the next photo, and so on. But since latitude and longitude are split into two separate input fields, that doesn't work either.

To mass update many pictures with the same location click the following in the order presented:
1. Tap Organize
2. Drag + Drop images to the batch area
3. Tap "Location" button (button bar above the batch area next to Send to Group)
4. Tap Add photos to the map
5. Zoom to location of choice
6. Drag the images from the findr bar to the location on the map
7. Viola. You're done.
Edited to note this seems to work best with already established sets.

Given Flickr is a shockingly international service a timetable for when Yahoo Maps are going to crawl out of the US-centric dark ages would be handy, especially as this looks to be a major and very useful part of the Flickr experience, especially for city groups and Flickrmeets.

I heard a rumor that geotagging was coming to flickr and got pretty hyped about it. Wow, I could be able to post pictures in towns on exact streets, and perhaps even be able to take a tour of a city before I visit it!
Alas, the maps are crap. Ok, I've never used Yahoo maps before, but saying that it 'isn't quite as good as Google maps' is a bit of an understatement. As a UK user... well, I haven't the time to check extensively but as far as I can tell, the 4 greatest zooms (yes that's almost 1/3 of them) are completely useless, and I can't place pictures with even a vague sense of accuracy due to satellite images being to small and the actual maps also being poor... major roads and general city locations just isn't quite good enough.
I don't mean to jab at yahoo for having maps sub-standard to mapping sites and rival search-engines, but I just wish that they were a little more substantial. It's a great tool anyway, and I will certainly use it... it's just not quite what I expected.
Will we be getting better maps any time soon?

I've been doing the Geotagging thing for months now, but it doesn't seem that any of my photos have been imported yet. Some of my images used the tags, but most simply have the information recorded by the camera in the EXIF information.
1. Will the importer be processing the EXIF information during this initial wave?
2. Will Flickr be reading the EXIF information on upload in the future?

Very cool, but what is the convention - location of major subject or location from where the photo was taken? I have just dropped some shots of the Sydney Opera House in on the basis of where I was when I pressed the shutter, but (on maximum zoom) they are scattered around the Harbour foreshores.

If you have a GPS enabled camera that automatically records location data, the convention would clearly be the location from wich you took the photo. When I add location data manually, however, I usually enter the location of the subject.
@DarrylW4 - short answer: 1. no, 2. yes. See the thread in the FlickrBugs forum.

Input and suggestions:
Wub and all, but I am SO glad I am living in the US when I came across this feature - the maps sucketh monkey pee when compared to *cough* Earth type others that have been around for well over a year...
Can Organisr now have a filter tag for "pictures with no location" please? I am dropping a set onto a map and finding which ones I haven't done is an arse.
[edit: To clarify, I mean a further filter like the privacy level one. I am not going to go through my stream and geo tag them all, it is more useful for me to do a set or batch at a time instead. The filtering is too early on in the search process].
When you hit the "see these on a map" link from a set, it would be great to just see these images- at present you just essentially lose them as you get sent to a generic map with associated 'noise'. Even better if there was some way of navigating the thumbnails in order - maybe with the arrow 'tail' moving around the map to show the passage of a journey. I have a few "I went for silly walks" sets, and this woudl be fantastic for this, as well as any holiday/tourist sets.
Otherwise, it's fantastic. I shall play some more...

Also: I am not getting the 'specific set' filter that Stewart mentions in the blog post, nor can i see the date taken filter that Ana has on the (porn soundtracked) show and tell-eo. I only have group and person.
Maybe next time do that from a signed in normal account, as the "Admin/Dev" tab will either get people confused or ask "Why haven't I got that tab when editing a picture?" :)

If what Beej is asking is for flickr to keep on importing any new photos that get geotags added, then I agree. I plan to keep on adding the tags as I do now, until such time as Yahoo's maps stop sucking, so I want the geotags to keep on getting imported to flickr's internal format.

Also, I wouldn't worry too much about the built-in map viewer being Yahoo!-based and therefore sucking. There are a bunch of excellent Google-based flickr viewers already out there, and with API access to the geo data they will get even better. Just pick one of those and use it, ignoring the built-in viewer.
Basically, the important part of flickr's new geo stuff is the API. Adding locations to your photos: suck. Viewing photos by location: suck. API: great.

Regarding the long term status of the geotagged tags and geo:lat and geo:lon. I wouldn't consider your import facility a one time hack but rather an ongoing merge, ie: if more such tagged photos are added to a users account a facility should exist to import, merge and update the map locations. There are good reasons to retain the tags. For one thing six decimal places of location accuracy is not sufficient. Surveyors routinely exceed this right now when using refined base points. The tags can store far more accurate data so it should be retained.
One user already suggested the following when importing or updating the map.
1) Use geotagged data first - it's user entered and should overide
any EXIF data.
2) If no geotagged data is found use EXIF data.
3) Maintain an update facility for geotagged data. I wouldn't
bother with an export to geotags your API calls are easy enough to use if anyone needs to do this.

3) www.flickr.com/photos/allanimal/1105356
Should I run the importer again?
What about new photos that I geotag outside of the tools built-in to Flickr. (For example, my script that reads the GPS EXIF data and automatically writes geotags before I upload). How will those new pictures get added to my map with the geotags they already have? Or is the automatic on upload if geotags are present?
What about pictures that I geotag with other tools that use less crap maps & imagery?

I heard the rumor that Flickr would be bringing geotagging and so I went and had a look at Yahoo! maps and quickly realized how lacking they were in comparison to Google Earth. So what did I do? I left feedback! as should everyone who thinks Yahoo! satellite photos of the rest of the major cities of the world, Europe, Asia, Africa, South America, Australia as shit should leave feedback too. How hard is it to buy some decent satellite photos?

Finaly! Maps and photos of Europe are terrible indeed, too little detail, incorrect city boundaries... ah, but that's up to Yahoo!, I suppose.

What do you mean with "delete from geotagging"? When you click on "delete photo" in Organizr, it deletes the photo, yes. If you want to remove it from the map without deleting it, locate it on the map and drag it off the area with the mouse, or go to the "location" tab in the edit dialog and clear the "latitude" and "longitude" values.

I love the idea (though Flickr isn't the first in the world to offer this), but I am really disappointed with the map resolution for Europe. Look, I know a lot of people live in the US, but overall, more people live in Europe. At this time, the geotagging Flickr offers is completely useless for large parts of Europe.
I hardly dare to say it, but look at the map resolution Zooomr offers: goes a lot further.
Can someone tell me wether this will change in the short term?

Exif reading, pleeeeease.
It's the sensible way to store the info, it's where everyone else is doing it. I'd really like to be able to upload my images to Flickr and just have it understand the geo information if it's there, then I'll get around to using the (cool) new map feature for those that aren't already tagged.
Just as important is including the info on downloads. I'd like to download images and have the lat/long stored in the Exif part. That way as devices become smarter they can take me to the locations of the images. See the Navman iCN750 for an example (http://navman.com/Navman/templates/BUHomepage____3407.aspx), or their site for sharing photos (http://navman.com/navpix)

Great stuff!
Front end is really smooth and looks great!
But, along with many other non-US users, I am going to have to use this in tandem with other websites (based on maps.google.com and maps.live.com) as they all provide different levels of accuracy (both in map and satellite) for european and south american photos.
Therefore can I add my name to the wishlist to "always support the "import" feature. "
Thanks a lot though for a great new feature...
(and can I put Order Prints on my list for Santa....?)

I've geotagged a bunch of photos in my set - when I view one of them normally there's no indication it's been tagged, though. Am I just missing something? I think it'd be pretty cool to have a link from tagged photos back to the map in the regular photo view.

It appears to me that when you geotag a set then look at the pictures in the map view, they are shown out of order. Is there a setting to change the order they are shown? I have looked at a few different peoples photos via the map view and all of their photos appear to be doing the same, based on the camera filename assigned counting down rather then up.

I love the new geotagging functionality. Here are some thoughts I had on making it easier... (3rd one looks to actually be a bug)
1. Allow for naming of addresses and selecting by that name, i.e. not having to use the map, but just saying geotag as “Work”, “Home”, “School”
2. Auto-geotag based on tags. For the tag, home, an action could be setup to geotag as the “Home” address automatically
3. Fix the map to recognize all addresses normal Yahoo maps recognizes. I had at least two addresses that could not be found in Flickr, but could on Yahoo Maps
4. Within the map, it would be nice to have a drop-down, or some such to select addresses that already contain geotagged photos and have the map refocus there

They are shown either in "most recent" or "most interesting" order, I suppose. There are links to switch the sort order at the bottom of the page.

Superb feature but the maps of Europe are worthless imho this feature shouldn't been released without detailed maps of Europe since all images that are being placed in Europe all have to be repositioned when there are detailed maps of Europe.

Thanks Mr. Minute. I had not noticed that. That's to bad though, as it means it is intentional. It makes sense for the general maps to see the most recent, but when someone is looking at the map for me I would want them to be able to see sets in the correct order.

I don't normally speak critically about new features, but I've just checked 5 continents and only North America has decent maps. The maps for the rest of the world are completely useless. I would use it otherwise.
It's amazing that people can get from point A to point B in my country. I was sure I had a very detailed map in my car to help me with that.

That's exactly why I put a link to google maps in description of my geotagged photos.
The maps from google are much much more precise (both map and satellite view) than the yahoo's ones.

Need to have EXIF reading on previously posted photos. Just another vote for that cause.

This release is almost an insult for anyone outside the US or Canada.

Is there a time delay between when you post the photos on the map and when they show up on the map?
None of my photos are showing up under www.flickr.com/map

I seem to have noticed a problem with hybrid mode while using FireFox 1.5.0.6 (with AdBlock): the satellite/aerial pictures do not load. Suggestions?

Michael - AdBlock's your problem: "the very popular Filterset.G for Adblock is blocking your map tiles."

How do I locate a photo on the map in Organizr? I could click on every dot on the map, scroll through the photos, see if it's there, then go to the next dot if it isn't etc.. But there must be a way to simply click on a photo in Findr and say "show this on the map".

@jasper - I can see all three of them on the map in Firefox, but they don't show for me in IE6 (it says "Loading the first page of photos" but actually doesn't load anything).

Kevin advised me to post this to this topic:
Regarding the "Pagination" on the maps, the FAQ states:
Since we can only show about 250 photos at a time, you need to paginate through the results using the little widget in the top left hand corner of the map.
Why is there this limit. I have 2,600 images geotagged from the UK, Canada and the USA. When I view the world map, I get a dot saying "Lots" over the UK and nothing else. That stays the same until page 9 when I get "92" in Vancouver, and "lots" in London, then:
Page 10 - "Lots" in Vancouver and "35" in Calgary
Page 11 - "49" in Vancouver and "8" in Calgary, and "lots" in London
Page 12 - "lots" in Seattle, "86" in London
Page 13 - "lots" in Seattle, "65" in Vancouver
I fully understad the usage of "lots" as there is a limited amount of space to show numbers in on the dots, but the fact that the numbers change is very odd looking.
This makes the map thing kindof useless for me as the dots aren't representative at all.
Is there something I can do to change the way I'm doing this, or is this a fixed limitation with the system?

Do I need to manually geotag the photos I have already uploaded to Flickr. Or will flickr automatically search my tags and geotag them for me on the map?

For all those begging for EXIF data import, there's an interesting option here. Don't know if this can be reached by clicking through the account page yet.

Yes, that link has been posted in the FlickrBugs forum. I understand, however, that it's only a setting for future uploads and does not affect images that are already there.

Is there any way to use GPS tracks (.gpx files) for the location as opposed to doing each photo manually?
