This is EXCELLENT Dennis!!! I love it.

just a few comments about the source:
1- check out this thread: Flickr: Discussing Best Practices for Writing Flickr Greasemonkey Scripts in Flickr Hacks about the inclusion patterns. Your two script wont work for user accessing flickr form flickr.com (happens often for some reason)
2- you might want to encapsulate your code in a function:

(function() {

//your code here

})();

Dennis Kruyt    says:

Thanks, I am new to greasemonkey and javascript. I take your comments noted...

Also the iframe I use now I want tochange it later. but I have problems with google map to include it. So I put it in a iframe. Also I know a little more PHP then JS, so this way it was a little bit faster for me to make. So most of the code is in the iframe, and not in the GM script.

point 1 and 2 should be fixes, point 3 is not clear to me. The code should only be executed if there is a ICBM in the metadata.

Does not work for me.. It show just a US map for any photo page i'm looking. Anyway it displays right coordinates at the bottom of the map (in grey color).

I just added the new Google earth option to the frame, try it out...

Here is more info about the new Google earth future in a browser: code.google.com/apis/earth/

First of all i just love this GM script, since I like maps almost as much as photos. It works with no problems on my computer, which runs Vista Ultimate and Firefox 2.0.

I do have one suggestion that would appeal to me having to do with the map's orientation. Of course it makes sense to have north on the top as the default but I wonder if you could do what Google Earth does and provide a control to shift the orientation. If I was facing in a direction other than north when I took the photo, I'd like to turn the map accordingly as it would be helpful in comparing the photo and the map image. I don't know if anyone else would find this desirable or if the control would take up more room than is available but I'll offer it as a thought.

Thanks for your interest!

Hey Dennis I found the problem and fixed it.
Problem was the , (comma) in the coords values.
This address (with commas) doesn't work:
kruyt.org/include/php/flickrmap.php5?Latitude=43,318816&a...
This (with dot) works:
kruyt.org/include/php/flickrmap.php5?Latitude=43.318816&a...

So I fix it by adding these lines:
lat = lat.replace(",",".");
lon = lon.replace(",",".");
after these:
var lat = coords[0];
var lon = coords[1];

Hope it helps!

When I click on the Earth Option, I get a blank page with only the pin displayed. If I try to go back to hybrid, I can't do it. I can go to a different Flickr page with no problem. Firebug displays the following error:

google.earth has no properties

@Dennis: Oh ok. Anyway now... works for me!
I know google uses dot in the italian version. Maybe in the next script version you can add multilanguage support directly.
Thank you for the script!

I added the multilanguage. But the google earth plugin? I have not figured it out yet.

Dennis Kruyt    says:

Ok, some people have the 3d part working, other people dont get it working:



Can you guys post your operation system and browser version you are using?

But I think it's a google earth plugin, that is buggy. The code it cant be wrong.

eraldo_ says:

Now it works fine!
Thank you.

PS. XPsp2, FF3

Denis,

Haven't tried Earth for 3 weeks but did today and it is working. It even has the orientation control that I was looking for. I am running Vista Ultimate SP1 along with Firefox 2.0.0.14. Absolutely love this script.

Yes, it's working for me to. It was a bug in the api from google, they fixed it. I post some nice screens.

Very cool! Great job! I'd love to install and use it, once it doesn't have any third-party website references embedded.

Dennis Kruyt    says:

I want to remove the 3rd party website (which is my own) in the future, and to make it full js. But to be honest, my php skills are a bit stronger, that's why i use a embedded iframe.

It's a good idea, but I'm not comfortable with you knowing every single Flickr page I visit :)

A little update, it seems that Flickramio is not working nicely together with the FireFox MiniMap Addon. if you have problems with Flickramio and have the MiniMap Addon installed, try disableing it, and see if it works, I try to make a fix for it later.

For who is using this greasemonkey script, can you upload / show some screenshots here?

RichSPK    says:

This works in Google Chrome/Greasemetal, but there's about a 10 second pause while my browser waits for kruyt.org to respond. It looks like others have already brought this up.

Anyway, here's a screenshot:

I loved this script! But once I found out, it went thru a 3rd party, I uninstalled very quickly. But I did love it the 3 days I used it.

I like to have some more feedback about people who are using Google Chrome/Greasemetal...

Sir Francis Canker Photography ©    says:

Hi, great script. But lets try to make this the other way around... How can I upload all my pictures onto Goggle Eart directly from Flickr? What I would like to do is to let everyone using GEarth my pictures when they go to any of the locations I have been to (all my pix are geotagged).

So far this has not been possible. but this is exactly what I would love. Any possibilities?

Thanx and cheers!

Dennis,

Recently I've run into an occasional problem where no map appears when I open a photo even though it appears to be geotagged correctly - even identically to another photo with the same geotags.

Here is my latest example:
www.flickr.com/photos/jweiss3/4308754005/?editedcomment=1#

I'm using Firefox 3.5.6 and Vista Ultimate.

1. I installed the script but nothing happens (most of my photos are properly geotagged).

2. Is the script still working? I thought that maybe the script was "retired" because it possibly conflicts with Google/Panoramio.

3. Is Dennis Kruyt still around?

4. If and when the script works, can anyone who doesn't have the script see the map?

5. As for Sir Francis's question (if he still comes here), did you try loc.alize.us ?
