Mapillary vs Where I Look?

Mapillary is the street-level imagery platform that scales and automates mapping using collaboration, cameras, and computer vision. Anyone can capture images of any place, as often as needed, with any camera—including smartphones. Mapillary combines all images into a collaborative street-level view of the world that’s available for anyone to explore and use for improving maps, cities, and mobility. Computer vision technology provides a smooth viewing experience and speeds up mapping through machine-extracted map data. Capturing with the Mapillary mobile app is the easiest way to join our contributor network. Let’s get started! CREATE YOUR OWN STREET-LEVEL VIEWS You control when and where to capture to create the freshest street-level imagery. Mapillary’s technology combines all images into a navigable view and blurs faces and license plates for privacy. ACCESS AND OPEN UP DATA Mapillary contributors are people, organizations, companies, and governments in 190 countries. Millions of images are added to the dataset every week, which you can explore right here in the mobile app. MAKE BETTER MAPS Use imagery and machine-extracted data to add details to maps and geospatial datasets. Mapillary integrates with tools like OpenStreetMap iD editor and JOSM, HERE Map Creator, and ArcGIS. To access the available map data, go to mapillary.com/app.

Ever scroll through your photos and wonder exactly where you were standing — and which way you were facing — when you took a shot? Where I Look? reads the GPS location and compass heading hidden in your photos' metadata and draws them on a map: a cone showing not just where you stood, but the exact direction and field of view your camera captured. FEATURES: • Gallery — browse your photo library in a clean, paginated grid. • Map View — tap any photo to see its location and field-of-view cone on an Apple Map. Drag a slider to adjust how far the cone extends. • Live Mode — point your phone right now and see the same cone in real time, driven by your device's live GPS and compass instead of a photo. • Full-Resolution View — pinch to zoom into the original photo, no detail lost. If a photo is missing GPS, compass, or lens data, the app tells you why the cone can't be drawn instead of just failing silently. PRIVATE BY DESIGN: Everything happens on your device. Your photos, location, and compass data are never uploaded anywhere — there's no server, no account, no tracking. Where I Look? simply reads the metadata already on your phone and shows it to you. Whether you're retracing a trip, figuring out which mountain is in the background of an old photo, or just curious how your camera saw the world — Where I Look? turns your photo library into a map of where you looked.
