Flickr API get image based on location


Is it possible through flickr api or some other service obtain CC-images taken at the location the user is situated?

Like getting the lat and long from the browser and sending it to flickr and then fetching an image taken there? Similar to how the yahoo app on iOS does.


Solution

  • Check out the flickr API documentation for flickr.photos.search.

    There are optional lat, lon, radius and geo-context parameters.
