The LookBackMaps App brings history to life as you discover and share historical photos around you.
With the LookBackMaps App, you can:
* Find historical photos based on your location
* Browse historical photos, and zoom in for details
* Email photos you find, complete with source information
* View source information for all photos, be it library, archive, or personal collection, so you can learn more about the subject
* Use the augmented reality GuideMe function to guide you to the location of a photo
* Use the augmented reality GuideMe function to show historical photos overlaid on your camera view and adjust the transparency to find the exact location the photographer stood and see then and now blur together!
Currently, only a select number of photos are available in San Francisco, but more will be added soon. And if you don’t see any photos from your town, just go to www.LookBackMaps.net to add some. These entries will be screened and added to the LookBackMaps App!
