AI can now find your location in photos. “PIGEON system could identify the location of a Google Street view image anywhere on earth. It guesses the correct country 95% of the time and can usually pick a location within about 25 miles of the actual site” npr.org/2023/12/19/121998400…

Over the past three years, the largest lake in the Middle East, Lake Urmia, transformed from being filled with water into a mostly vast, dry salt flat. Drier conditions over that time led to this change captured by #Landsat 8 and 9 in Sept. 2020 and 2023.
