GPS and Digital Camera
30-09-07 Filed in:Thoughts
Imagine you had a digital camera with build in GPS and a compass for direction...
Imagine that GPS information is saved with every picture in EXIF-data...
Imagine there is a server you could upload your images of places you had been...
Imagine a software like Google earth would allow you to get to a point on earth, watch those images people have taken there and lets you even browser through time. How did that place look 5 years ago? How does it look in winter, in summer? Just walk through images and explore that place seen through the eye of different people...
Feasibility? Easy.
Benefit? Fun.
