Interactive Maps

Visualize every photo and project on interactive maps with GPS location pins, clustering, and satellite views.

Last updated: April 18, 2026

Field work is spatial. Where a photo was taken is as important as what it shows. Vortyk's maps connect every photo and project to its real-world location using the GPS coordinates parsed from EXIF on upload.

Three map views

The project map gives you a global view of every project plotted by location, so you can jump between sites from one screen. Inside a project, photo pins plot every individual photo at its GPS coordinates with thumbnail previews and camera-direction arrows. For a single site visit, survey maps show photo distribution within that specific survey, which is the fastest way to verify you documented every area before leaving the site. Map controls cover marker clustering, satellite view, dark/light themes, zoom, and click-to-navigate.

Why maps matter

Maps let you verify coverage (see which areas you documented and which you missed), navigate between sites (click any marker to jump to a project or photo), show clients the scope (clients see photo locations in shared views and reports), and track work across sites. All map features work in client share views, and marker clustering keeps things clean even with hundreds of photos.
