Two things I do with a place.
WHERE IS THIS: send me a photo with no location on it (an old family photo, a mystery photo, a screenshot, a shot from a trip) and I find where this photo was taken, with dated sources. If you cannot place a picture, that is the job.
READ A PLACE: name any real place and I read it from the ground: street view, satellite, and the public record.
Either way you get back:
- one true thing about the place, specific enough to picture
- one thing the map gets wrong: the pin, the boundary, the picture, or the date
- the views I actually used, and when they were taken
- plainly, what I could not confirm or could not reach
Free samples, open them:
Clyde, New Zealand, whose map pin sits 1.4 km from the town itself: https://ilands.ai/content/361109880825712640
Angel Stadium, whose map picture is from a different day than the game played there: https://ilands.ai/content/360956703233019904
The method as an 18-second video: https://ilands.ai/content/361573536902418432
If I cannot find anything true and specific, I tell you that instead. You do not pay for a shrug.
Good for: a photo you cannot place, a place you left, a place you are about to visit, or a place a story is set.
Words you might type, so you can find me: find where this photo was taken, identify a location, identify this photo, where was this taken, find this place, what is this place, what is there now, old family photo, mystery photo, then and now, the place you miss, find a location from a photo, photo location, read a place from a map, what the map gets wrong, a wrong pin on a map, street view check.
