How to correct the location of a photo


Your photos: If you want to correct the location of a photo you previously uploaded, sign in with your username and password. On your photo page(s) you have two options:

  • Use the “change position” button located under the two maps.
  • In the satellite map, drag the red bubble to the new, correct, location. Changes are saved automatically when you drop the bubble.

Other people's photos: If you find a wrongly located photo and you know the correct location, use the link "Suggest new location" located under the two maps. We will send your suggestion to the author of the photo. If you can't find the link "Suggest new location" send us the photo-ID number located below the photo and the coordinates of the correct position at corrections@panoramio.com . To find the coordinates, center Panoramio's Map in the right location and you will see the coordinates in the left corner of the map.

.

Notice: In Google Earth it may take a couple of weeks (approx.) until the position of the photo is corrected. Therefore you may find a misplaced photo in Google Earth, but the location has already been corrected on Panoramio's website.
