On a similar (but not entirely related) vein, I've thought that it
would be cool to have photosets on Flickr or something that are all
taken within, say, 3 meters of a specific location.  Kind of like
geocaching only with pictures.

Geotagging Support
==================

So, speaking of organizing photos with FOSS, I am wondering if any
applications currently support use of Geotagged photos.  Geotagged
photos contain the GPS coords for the location the photo was taken.
Cameras such as the Nikon d200 integrate with a NMEA capable GPS to
record the location when you take a photo.

I think it would be cool to be able to click on a link in the photo
album/software and have it pull up a google map with the location.  Or
be able to group photos by location groups, i.e. photos taken within a
certain threshold distance from each other, possibly combined with a
time-line.  So, two groups of pictures taken at the Grand Canyon for
example, but on different trips could be viewed separately.

An example of a Geotagged photograph I took recently is here:

    http://gallery.mecworks.com/Black_n_White/pa210184_grey

Once on that page, click on "photo properties" in the upper right to see
the EXIF data, including the GPS lat and lon.

OK, Anyone know if this type of support in software yet?
