This was an invaluable source for finding interesting areas close to you or to your travel destination. I'm already missing it; the Flickr world map is garbage compared to what Panoramio was.
I'd love to see this resurrected somehow.
- modeless 10y agoGoogle has several other options for finding interesting areas close to you. The newest is Google Trips: https://get.google.com/trips/ https://get.google.com/trips/, a little older is Field Trip https://www.fieldtripper.com/ https://www.fieldtripper.com/, and of course Google Earth still has plenty of geotagged photos to explore, either in the client app or in the web version. Field Trip in particular is worth a look. It somehow contains a wealth of hyper-local information that you probably won't see elsewhere, at least for places in the US. I certainly learned things about the history of my local area that I never would have found out otherwise.
- CalRobert 10y agoIt's certainly not the same (a dump of geotagged photos), but I also enjoy finding cool stuff on road trips and made https://www.lanesurfing.com/ https://www.lanesurfing.com/ because nothing was quite what I was looking for. (side project for my own amusement, so no promises it works well in webkit or IE)
