Photos from Panoramio updated in Google Earth, April 23th

April 24th, 2007 by Eduardo Manchón

Finally the new update is done. We sent to Google Earth a selection of photos up to ID: 1,710,000. Approximately 3/4 of the photos uploaded to Panoramio were sent to Google Earth. Thas is almost one million photos (973,949), the double number of photos than the previous update that reached ID: 655,000.

Thanks to you all for illustrating the World with your photos. Despite of being working in Panoramio from the first day, every single day I get amazed by your photos. Simplemente impresionantes.

Our excuses for the delay. In the previous update I spoke about making updates more frequently, but the delay was even longer this time. Still our goal is to make updates every few days and we are working together with Google Earth team to reach this frequency.

The photos sent to Google Earth are the ones in the “popular” tab in Panoramio. However Google Earth team also made their own selection, so not all photos we sent to them are displayed in GE as blue compasses. If you see your photo in “popular” tab, but not in Google Earth, this is your case. On the other hand if your photo (with ID under 1,710,000) is not included in “popular” tab and you believe it should be included, please, report us at questions AT panoramio.com. We reviewed photos manually, but if you find any inappropriate photo in Google Earth, you can use the flagging system to report it and we will check it.

We had a couple of problems with the update. Some photos that were already in Google Earth and received suggestions for relocation were removed from Google Earth by mistake. Also all photos with IDs between 1,650,00 and 1,670,000, are out from the “popular” tab and thus from the Google Earth update. Sorry for that, we are working on these bugs right now.

By the way, if your photos are still not included in Google Earth represented by blue compasses, you have the chance to see all your photos in Google Earth represented by thumbnails of themselves by opening any Panoramio feed.

    Vi la actualización. MUCHAS GRACIAS. Algunas de mis fotos aparecen en Google. Otras no porque tenían personas. Me parece muy bueno que no se incluyan aunque tengan paisajes por detrás. Aún así, otras no fueron publicadas, no contenían personas y a mi criterio eran muy buenas. Fueron tomadas en el Glaciar Perito Moreno, Argentina. Pero no interesa!!! Está bárbaro Google y Panoramio. LOS FELICITO POR SU TRABAJO!!! Imagino que debe ser extenuante en ocasiones tener que ver tantas fotos y evaluarlas!!! Eduardo, una duda: si uno cambia el título de una foto en su espacio personal, ese cambio después aparece en Google o ya queda como uno lo puso inicialmente? Bueno, vuelvo a felicitarlos por su trabajo. Mucha suerte, Emanuel

    Hello Eduardo and Joaquín, I am member of Panoramio since several months ago. Now it is my preferred website, and for many people the couple Panoramio-Google Earth is indeed a marvelous site. People can visit a lot of world places seeing not only the geographical details but many photos of them. The exponential increase of new members and photos of Panoramio is a clear demonstration of its quality and general interest. Congratulations to both: Joaquín Cuenca and Eduardo Manchón and, of course, to all the Panoramio team. Thank you for this very good idea.

    I uploaded few photos around april 2007 sometime. The photos were indexed below 1,4 milion but until July 2007 did not appear on google earth.. I honestly think they deserve to be there, as a example.. one of them: http://www.panoramio.com/photo/1463960
    I set them up with extremely accurate coordinates on the google earth maps.. Thanx and I hope I will see them on google earth. regards, ivo

    Yvan from Belgium made a wunderful website inspired by google earth from the Canarian Island La Palma. We´re trying to find out how we can put some from this 360 panorama virtual fotos on Google Earth so that many people can enjoy them. I think the best fotos i´ve ever seen. www.lapalma-virtualtour.nl
