FIND OUT THE LOCATION OF A PICTURE

FIND OUT THE LOCATION OF A PICTURE
Many a times we have beautiful pictures of some locations saved on our mobile phones or computers but we do not know where these wonderful places actually are! This also happens with some pictures found in emails we receive.
A special image feature by Google helps you to uncover the mystery behind such beautiful pictures. This feature is actually based on ‘similar image’ concept, considering the millions and millions of images available on the internet. And it often pinpoints the location perfectly!

Here is how you can go about it
Go to the image search link of Google:
You will notice a camera-like icon at the end of the search bar. Click the icon. If you want to search with the internet URL you can type the URL of the image here. Click Search. If you want to find out the physical location of an image that is saved on your computer, click on Upload an image. Thus you will have the option to select the image from the computer drive. As soon as you click the required image it will be uploaded on the website and it will indicate the physical location of the image.
