1. OpenSource Geotagging Application
Geotagging is the process of adding geographical
identification metadata to various media

2. Basics
➲ Geotagging is HARD!
➲ Geo-locating an image with no information
is really difficult,try it out!
http://locatestreet.com/game.php
➲ There are less META files with EXIF Data
on the Internet than you think

3. OpenSource Application?
➲ There is a need for a OpenSource
Application that helps the geotagging of
Meta-Data
➲ A little example is viable on the GeoTagX
website:
http://www.geotagx.org/app/geotag_yamun
a
Here we created a geotagging application
based on OpenStreetMap.
The only real help is the possibility to
describe a wide area, and not only a single

4. A look into the Future
➲ The future utility of a geotagging system
integrated with a EXIF search engine is
UBERLY immense!
➲ Try to imagine walking into CERN wearing
your new AWESOME (omg i want them so
much) Google Glasses, just wandering
around, being able to see all the photos
from the past geolocated all around you,
you could “litterally” travel in time. Imagine
hearing a tour of cern based on where you
are.

5. Italians are first! … not.
➲ A fairly small team of italian web developers
(wich i'm leading) are working to make this
happen.
➲ We are trying to develop a EXIF search
engine that actually works ( not like
http://www.exif-search.com/ ) and create ad
uniqe multi-platform application that will
enable a raspberry with wi-fi connection to
become a Time-Travel Machine.

6. Sadly nothing is yet out
➲ The project will seek to create a User-
Friendly-AND-Helping geotagging system in
order to geo-tag (with crowd-crafting
[Thanks pybossa team!]) old
photos,video,music without EXIF data.
➲ The second stage will be creating a EXIF
Crawler for those Meta-Data files
➲ The third stage will be creating a multi-
platform application wich will work on
computers, mobiles, ecc. that enable you to
travel into history...and present

7. OPEN SOURCE!
➲ Yes it will be Open Source, Yes it will be
hosted on GitHub!
➲ YES you can contribute!
➲ NO you cannot cause we've not passed the
initial fase of the project, we're still
gathering ideas (any help is appreciated)

8. We Like Pizza
➲ As a wonderfull Pizza, you cannot begin a
project without having a clear idea of what
you want it to be in the end.
➲ With the GeoTagX Web-Site the geotagging
plugin is secretly under test, in order to
understand if it could be used and upgraded
to a perfect/usefull version
➲ P.S. The secret to a good pizza is that you can fold it 4 times without the center breaking!

9. Thank you

Cheers, Fausto.
