Stewart recently showed me some very cool (and in some cases surprising) Flickr geotagging examples. Here’s a few I loved.

Where is the neighborhood in Manhattan known as Tribeca?

Get your kicks, on Route 66

Food tour of Asia

What I love about the “tribeca” and “route 66″ examples is that they show emergent knowledge in the system. Collectively, the efforts of many photographers map out a geographic element… Neat.

    Flickr geotagging interface is brilliant, but Yahoo Maps coverage for most of the World is very poor. If you prefer Google Maps, Panoramio, may be interesting for you. Btw, you can later watch the photos in Google Earth KML feed, a much better experience than web based maps.
