Upload or paste an image URL to find where else it appears online — the first step in verifying a photo's origin.

The strongest reverse-image search for faces and locations; upload a photo to find visually similar matches.

Upload an image to find similar images, products and landmarks.

Run `exiftool photo.jpg` to read hidden metadata: camera model, timestamps, sometimes GPS coordinates.

Browse free Sentinel satellite imagery by location and date; compare true-color and false-color bands.

Download free EU Sentinel satellite data (optical and radar) via API or browser.

Use EO Browser to visualize satellite imagery with custom band combinations and time-lapse.

Street-level photos in places Google Street View doesn't cover.

Learn country-specific visual clues (bollards, plates, poles) to narrow down where a photo was taken.

Enter a location and date to get sun azimuth/elevation — use shadows in a photo to verify time and place.

Same sun-position math: set date/time, read shadow direction to cross-check imagery.

Simulate building shadows for any date/time to test a claimed location against photo shadows.

Interactive 3D shadow simulation of cities for geolocation verification.
