I'm guessing this can be the new bot that could play competitively at GeoGuesser. It would be interesting if Google trained a similar model and released it using all the Street Map data, I sure hope they do.

Has anyone done something similar with the geolocated WIFI MAC addresses, to have small model for predicting location from those.

I believe I read somewhere that geoguesser AI based on street view data was mostly classifying based on the camera/vehicle set up. As in, a smudge on the lens in this corner means its from Paris.

This crowdsourced approach probably eliminates that issue.
