For anyone who has ever sifted through old photo albums trying to use “some trees in the woods” or “some buildings in a city” as a reference point to figure out where a particular photo was snapped, geotagging technology is a godsend.

When plugged into the right tools, it’s like pinning every photo in your collection up to an enormous map.
