If you are a professional geoguessr player, you play so many games that it’s not unrealistic to get very good guesses once in a while.
But I wouldn’t be surprised if some form of cheating is happening.

Not just cheating, but just lots of meta, from the blurred number plates color/format, to the stitching of the image at the bottom, mounting location of the camera on the google car. There are list which variant of car was used in which countries and so on. Which is still impressive but not quite the same as just guessing from the image
Nice examples.
Every attribute is of importance. A PhD put you in a 1-3% pool. What data do you have, what is needed to hit a certain goal. Data Science can be considered wizardry when exercised on seemingly innocent and mundane things like a photo.
Geoguessr is different as you can rely on implementation details, such as the camera generation, car, processing, and stuff like a large part of some countries being covered with a dirty spot somewhere in the FOV.
