Thanks to The Map Room for news of Flickrs’ latest development. Photos can now be tagged with their location directly within Flickr. Helpful videos and a fairly intuitive drag and drop interface make the process fairly simple. Unfortunately for UK users, the service is based on Yahoo maps, and they don’t cover the UK at the required scale for accurate geotagging. Here for example are photos that I’d previously geotagged. Pretty useless really.
In the meantime, Yuan.CC Maps or ITag probably represent the best free of charge alternatives for geotagging Flickr pictures in the UK.
