Hi folks, hope all are well today!
Is there a Lemmy community (or dare I say Reddit sub) that talks about finding locations from photos without meta/EXIF data?
I know there are groups that do this sort of thing for “fun”, so I thought I would ask here first… before doing random internet searches.
I have photo of a person in a location but my “tracking skills” are terrible. Best I can do is determine the country the photo was taken in.
My intent is to keep myself safe, I am not doing anything nefarious!! Just throwing that out there folks 🙂
Appreciate any and all feedback/responses. Have a great day all!
Not exactly. There is a web-based game called GeoGuesser, where users are given a picture and guess where the picture was taken on a map. You get a higher score the closer you get.
One player I follow called GeoWizard makes YouTube videos of his games, as well as challenges himself to find locations of fan photos and such. Your situation sounds like the ladder. :D
On a different note, he also takes on real life challenges, such as crossing European countries in a (nearly) straight line, or traveling as far as he can with just 10 pounds in his pocket. Recommend checking out a series if you’ve got time.
