I do my best to be accurate, but sometimes it's hard to be right, right down to the nearest metre or two, and some people here are evidently less careful than others. Does this tool automatically determine the correct position, or does it rely on the information given by the person/people who uploaded the images? How does the applet deal with any mispositioning?

My question is, how does the feature know that the photos were taken in many different directions? As far as I can tell, there is no way of specifying or determining the direction a photo was taken in, only the position by way of 2D coordinates, not even altitude! Or have I missed something? Hi,

Hi,
You say that we will only find the link “look around” for photos in areas with a high density of images and that the most interesting places to “look around” are squares, towers or any location where people took photo in many different directions.

My question is, how does the feature know that the photos were taken in many different directions? As far as I can tell, there is no way of specifying or determining the direction a photo was taken in, only the position by way of 2D coordinates, not even altitude!

Or have I missed something?

The "look around" will be created automatically. Just upload the photos and wait, you don’t need to to anything else. The “look around” will be created automatically.

I want to upload a bunch of photos from a panorama and use this feature. How do I do that? I understand the concept and I have played with it a bit under OpenPhotoVR, but I can't figure out how to do it here. Am I missing something?

You should remain under each photo links, because that is impossible to know whether it is elected this category. And easier for consideration of such photos.

I would like Eduardo to give us a good explanation of the whole thing, as I have always had a good impression of him.

Today, accidentally discovered this feature for my photography ID: 3653814. It would be better if the tag would automatically appear "look around" for such photos.
