Addition of Flickr photographs

To aid in visual interpretation, geo-tagged photographs from Flickr have been added to LACO-Wiki. Similar to the NDVI profiles, this feature must be turned on during the creation of a validation session as shown in Figure 18.

If a geo-tagged photograph is present, it will appear as a yellow dot on the satellite imagery. In most cases, users will need to zoom out to see whether photographs are present. Figure 19 shows an example of zooming out, where the pixel to be validated appears on the left near the top of the screen (small blue box) and a yellow dot indicates the presense of a geo-tagged photograph. Clicking on one of the dots displays the photograph, which in Figure 19 shows a Grassland type of land cover.
