This is one of those features you didn't know you need, but are absolutely ecstatic about! I believe in the business world they call this a "delight". A whole new dimension has been added to my journal style daily photo (http://doctorit.smugmug.com/gallery/705038). I can map locations to all the places I go (which is a fair amount as I travel by motorcycle) and you can see them all. So cool!!!
:clap :clap :clap
The only downside is now I'm going to spend a good part of today going back through my daily photo galleries mapping at least the furthest away and coolest locations. I have real chores to do!!! :wxwax
:lol3

It *is* tres cool!:thumb
And I also agree that we need some s/w tool(s) that can helps us to automate this job. A lot of use have gobs of "traveling" pictures, and doing it by hand can eat out weeks and weeks from our lifes.
I already submitted the request of surfacing map data in smugmug API (http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=17053). If this is done it would be relatively easy to automate "mapping" process via 3d party tools (like S*E:-)
Cheers!:1drink

pretty cool and nice pix Erik. How did you turn that feature on?the maps? It was part of the big recent face lift at smugmug. Under each photo, the photo tools now includes a "edit geography"... maybe it doesn't show up until you edit geo for at least one?
:dunno
the face lift has changed some things on my journal, so I'm working on the look a little, but this map feature is so cool.

in "customize" gallery settings there's a button to enable geography. then, under each pic, you can edit geography, typing in the lat/long or you can lookup the lat/long by address.
the camera mfgrs will someday soon have built in gps i'm sure :deal
