🔍 Have you ever wondered how location experts can find a place based on just one photo? At Students Brain Boost Cooler, we got the chance to flex our mapping skills when a client came to us with a unique challenge:
“Can you tell where this geotagged photo was taken?”
Though the property was unidentified, our team was up for the task. Using a simple, methodical process, we delivered precise results and demonstrated the power of spatial investigation.

Here’s how we cracked the case in three steps:

🧭 Our Step-by-Step Workflow
Step 1: Overlay the Photo in Google Earth
We started by importing the geotagged photo into Google Earth. This gave us a general sense of the landscape and surroundings from the original camera position.

Step 2: Open Street View
Once the location was narrowed down, we opened Google Street View to verify building features, angles, and details that matched the original photo.
Activating Street View in Google Earth by selecting the Pegman icon – Step 2 of the property mapping workflow.
Step 3: Screenshot Google Earth Street View
After locating the exact spot, we took a screenshot from Google Earth’s Street View to compare and confirm the match.
