New Mapping Goodness


Flickr is now spatially enabled with a slick interface to Yahoo! maps. Check out my Flickr map here.

mapping goodness indeed. The more you zoom in the more fascinating it is. You took a couple of shots one street from where i live: bathurst + dundas.

This does seem like an obvious extra layer to how one views and shares images. Next step: every digicam includes gps with automatic geo details in the EXIF.

Next step is already there for some Nikons. Not much use in the studio, though -- GPS doesn't work indoors, underground or underwater.

Meanwhile, I'm happy to add GPS info as part of my post-processing workflow.

You know I am not a geek, and I will probably never do a flikr map, but I admit I had fun checking yours... :O)
For the people who loves to travel, this is just great! Gary, you should work for National Geographic! :O)
