Built on satellite images taken mid-morning either Friday or Saturday 2005 as used in Yahoo base Maps, geocoded photos match only 2005 exactly. See in the satellite orthophotos the Dutch Windmills have already burned—Thursday evening, September 1. In 2006 Black Rock City moved about one kilometer northeast to Special Recreation Permit Site B.
The dilemma then becomes, should placement match geographic coordinates or rough features of the city? Whatever the solution, Yahoo could update the base Map at their choosing and break existing placement for most photos. Currently beyond the capability of Flickr Maps, the solution lays not just in geocoding but also in timecoding each photo and placing it on the correct annual map.

on the mayoral race in Seattle... this is truly the game changer:
Broadhead (winning candidate consultant): And this campaign was an eye-opener for me. If you gave me the choice, next cycle, of having the vote of the immigrant and refugee community in Seattle … and having, basically, the downtown checkbook, that would be a no-brainer for me. The immigrant and refugee committee … delivered votes for us.
