Show HN: Display Photos on a World Map
I had this idea where you would see realtime photos on a map, right now this is simply using cat pics, not sure where to take it from here but maybe it's useful to someone. :)

- adi_hn07 1y agoReally cute app here !!
- stonegray 1y agoLooks similar to the iOS/macOS photos app Might be neat for a service like Earthcam or Insecam, or packaged as an electron app to view folders of photos by EXIF location.
- Leftium 1y agoWas curious what was being used for geocoding, but it is just a hard-coded list of ~40 cities with their lat/longs. These seem to be the most generous (free) geocoding api's Forward geocoding (location name to lat/long) - Open Meteo 10,000/day: https://open-meteo.com/en/docs/geocoding-api https://open-meteo.com/en/docs/geocoding-api Reverse geocoding (lat/long to location name) - OpenWeatherMap 1,000,000/month: https://openweathermap.org/api/geocoding-api https://openweathermap.org/api/geocoding-api - Also has forward geocoding; seems more comprehensive than Open Meteo DB.
