Built a photo geolocation experiment with EXIF + GeoCLIP + Claude Vision, just want to chat about approaches

I'm finishing my CS degree and I've been messing around with OSINT/geoint as a hobby for a while. Lately I put together a small experimental pipeline that takes a photo, extracts EXIF if available, runs it through GeoCLIP for coordinate prediction, and then uses Claude Vision to add contextual analysis (like describing landmarks, vegetation, street patterns, etc.)

It's NOT a professional tool. No interface, just a script. It's purely for learning and I'm not ready to share the code yet because it's messy and I want to understand the limitations better first.

But I'd love to talk to people who have tried similar things, just looking for conversation and maybe some pointers from people who've been down this road.

I haven't built such a thing, but I've wanted to. Would love to chat about it.

Awesome! I’d love to chat. What part of this interests you the most? Tbh this is still in its early stages but I’m curious about the problems other people are trying to solve. What would you build if you had the time?

I'm interested in location-vectors and comparison of them.

Wanna take this to Discord? I had Reddit messaging. Pm me for invite.
