  • Abstract
    In this paper we describe a system for creating a navigable mirror world, utilizing community photographs of real life environments. We present the essential architecture and a prototype solution for not only geotagging, but also spatially structuring content. Mash-up interfaces are available towards 3rd parties, for linking and georeferencing their content.
