Geotagging in iPhoto
January 7th, 2009 Posted in Gnome, , libchamplain
So seems like geotagging is the cool new feature! It is nice to know that EOG already supports it! I guess I was right on time when I wrote the map view plugin some months ago!
Now, who wants to write the code needed in F-Spot to display the pictures on a map with libchamplain? I can give help but C# isn’t my cup of tee (I am way too busy!).

Bah, geotagging… I loved face recognition in Google Picasa (Web Albums)… gotta try that in iPhoto. What a pity it features only native Flickr and Facebook uploader (which supports geo and face data).
Are there any FOSS face recognition libraries yet?

None that I know of. I did a school project on face recognition. Detecting the presence of a face isn’t that hard, but saying “is this the same person” is fairly harder

There’s library called opencv. You may want to give it a try.
