Markus, Emilio and Wikidatans,
Building on the beautiful maps-with-Wikipedia entries that you just created, Markus, in what ways could such Commons' photos/images with millions of coordinates, related video resources, and other related Wikipedia items be incorporated into a 3D film-realistic interactive wiki-informed virtual world - think Google Earth with OpenSim, Second Life, Illustris + - and in a way that's wiki-buildable, and could be used even for STEM-research (e.g. mapping in specific photos and videos from the various archaeological digs at Troy), and decade-by-decade to begin, even, for a kind of historical reference time frame virtual-world mapping?
Here are a few related receptions conceptions of this from my blog ...

... and all in relation to a CC wiki/Wikidata academic methodology I'd like to develop further which I'm calling "ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy" and especially for STEM research - and in large languages to begin - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/ethno-wiki-virtual-world-grap... .
Thanks for these beautiful Wikipedia maps.
Cheers, Scott

Very cool. Now try the same with other bodies of Solar System.[1] Specially moon craters.
Right ... here you go:

With the density that low, other visualisations (Google Maps like) would make more sense, but there are some language-specific findings nonetheless. I guess other bodies will have even less to see, so I did not do them now.
Thanks! very interesting :-)
Commons has million pictures with coordinates.[1] Are they going to be imported into Wikidata?

Hi all, inspired by the recent works of Adam, I have now recreated the Wikidata maps that Denny made some years ago: https://ddll.inf.tu-dresden.de/web/Wikidata/Maps-06-2015/en There are some interesting observations to be made there, and in any case the images are quite pretty. The code is available online as one of the Wikidata Toolkit examples [1] for anyone who wants to create more/different maps. Building all of the maps takes about half an hour on my laptop, once the dump is downloaded. Cheers, Markus [1]https://github.com/Wikidata/Wikidata-Toolkit/tree/master/wdtk-examples
