How to find where a photo was taken
Upload the photo to Oceanir. The model analyzes visual evidence in the frame — architecture, signage, plate format, vegetation, road markings — and returns a top-ranked location plus five alternatives. Each candidate includes GPS coordinates, a confidence score, and the specific cues that drove the answer. Turnaround is typically under 30 seconds, no GPS or EXIF metadata required.
Can AI tell where a picture was taken?
Yes. Modern visual models read scene-level cues invisible to keyword search: language on a sign, building materials, climate, license plate format, road furniture. Oceanir uses these to return ranked location candidates with coordinates and confidence. Accuracy varies by depth: city level on most outdoor scenes, street level when a unique landmark is visible.
Does it work without GPS or EXIF metadata?
Yes. Oceanir works purely from pixels — no GPS, no EXIF, no embedded metadata required. The system was built for screenshots, dashcam frames, and social media photos where metadata has been stripped. Visual evidence (architecture, signage, vegetation, road markings) is the sole input.

Can OSINT analysts geolocate a photo without EXIF?
Yes. OSINT analysts use Oceanir to geolocate photos and video frames when EXIF and GPS are missing. Upload the image; the model returns ranked coordinates, a confidence score, and the visual cues it used — signage, architecture, plates, terrain — typically in under 30 seconds. Same workflow for journalists and claims investigators. Walkthrough: https://oceanir.ai/osint-image-geolocation
