Abstract: In the last years, several algorithms and platforms for photo sharing have been developed. Usually, in order to index huge quantities of images for a fast and intuitive retrieval, additional textual tags attached to the pictures are considered. In this paper, we present a set of solutions for an effective management of geo-located images, i.e. pictures equipped with tags indicating the geographical coordinates of acquisition. This brings towards an intuitive content visualization and management of large geo-located image databases.
