Find where an image was taken.
Verify the evidence behind it.
Upload a photo to get suggested locations and clues you can check on the map. No GPS or EXIF tags are needed.
Run a free Surface scan on this page without signing up. Compare its suggested place with the signs, buildings and road layout in your photo. A map pin is a hypothesis; keep it unconfirmed until the scene agrees.
If you have the original photo, check its GPS tags first. Screenshots and shared images may have lost them. Tags can also be edited, so compare them with the scene.
Check a readable sign, a road junction and the neighboring buildings together. A different facade or road alignment can rule out a plausible-looking result.
A detailed D3 analysis uses 10 credits to investigate further. It can still be inconclusive, especially with dark scenes, generic interiors or tight crops. Paying does not guarantee an exact address.
Orca runs every analysis in the Oceanir app and the API. It reads roads, signs, buildings and terrain to suggest where a photo was taken, and returns ranked candidates with the clues behind each one.
How Orca worksManta is a visual evidence model for work that gets questioned afterwards. It establishes where a photograph was taken, resolves it to the street or the building, and shows the evidence that led there, without claiming more precision than that evidence carries. Manta is available to select organizations through reviewed enterprise access.
Compare the tower, neighboring facades, and the direction of the street in reference imagery. A London estimate still needs a separate check of the exact camera position.

Yes, when the image contains useful clues. Signs, distinctive buildings, and road layouts may suggest a location. Precision varies; a clear landmark can help, while a generic scene may remain unresolved.
Yes. Oceanir reads the visible scene without requiring GPS or EXIF tags. Screenshots and shared photos can work if they still show enough detail.

Yes. Oceanir can suggest locations for photos and video frames without GPS or EXIF tags. Review the candidate locations and visible clues, then compare them with maps and independent sources. See the workflow: https://oceanir.ai/osint-image-geolocation
Oceanir helps you look for a photo's location from signs, buildings, roads, and other visible details. Review the suggested places and check them against reference imagery. You can use screenshots and shared photos without GPS or EXIF tags.
Treat the caption as a claim to check. Compare distinctive buildings, road layout, and signs with the named place. A photo can show the right city but a different street; it can also be an older image reposted as a new event. A location estimate does not establish the capture date or the image's original source.
1. Upload a JPG, PNG, or WebP. A video frame works too.
2. Start with a free Surface estimate.
3. Reads roads, buildings, signs, terrain.
4. Returns ranked matches with confidence scores.

Upload a photoWhy Oceanir
Oceanir estimates where a scene is, even when the original photo isn't indexed online. You still need to check the suggested location.
Upload the picture to Oceanir for suggested locations and confidence scores. It uses visible clues without needing GPS or EXIF tags. Check the candidates against maps and reference images. Your plan determines which additional review and export tools are available.
Compare signs, buildings, roads, and other visible details with maps and independent reference photos. Look for contradictions as well as matches. Keep a record of what you checked before accepting a location.
Yes. Oceanir analyzes the visible scene, so GPS and EXIF tags aren't required. Clear surroundings give it more location clues to work with.
No. Interiors and generic scenes may contain too few distinctive clues. Similar buildings or landscapes can also produce a wrong candidate, even with a high confidence score. Treat the result as a lead until independent evidence supports it.
Yes. Upload a screenshot or a clear still frame from a video. Include the surrounding scene, because an extreme crop can remove the details needed to suggest a location.
They can, but higher resolution preserves more visual clues. Heavy compression, blur, night scenes, or extreme crops can make a useful match impossible.
Use images with known locations that resemble your work. Compare candidate accuracy, coverage, supporting evidence, and the time you need to review each result. A benchmark score alone does not establish an advantage on your images.
