Bing Maps Geocodes Searched Images
I didn’t find this feature, Gary Price noted it on his Resource Shelf blog.
Basically, you do an image search on Bing for a city. I used Boston and found these. If you click on the “Show Map” link you’ll see the images posted on Bing Maps.
So, how does Microsoft geocode the images? A Microsoft spokesperson responded to my question:
We used an algorithm to associate top points of interest and then used our Image Search index and Bing Maps technology to associate images with those points of interest in selected cities.
