name: geolocation-skill description: | Systematic visual geolocation reasoning from images.

[VAD] Analyzes photos, street views, or satellite imagery to determine location. Uses visual clue extraction, hypothesis formation, and web verification.

[NÄR] Use when: geolocate, identify location, where is this, find this place, geographic analysis, location from image, OSINT geolocation

[EXPERTISE] Visual analysis, geographic indicators, verification strategies allowed-tools: Read, Grep, Glob, WebFetch, WebSearch

Geolocation Reasoning

Method: Iterative reasoning loop (max 5 iterations) Inspiration: GeoVista research framework

Core Workflow

1. Visual Clue Extraction

2. Hypothesis Formation

Form hypotheses at multiple scales:

For each: Note supporting evidence, confidence (H/M/L), conflicts.

3. Image Examination

When details unclear:

• Crop regions of interest
• Enhance text/signage
• Isolate architectural details

4. Web Search Verification

Cross-reference multiple clues, look for consistent attribution.

5. Iterative Refinement

After each cycle:

1. Update hypothesis confidence
2. Identify remaining uncertainties
3. Determine if more examination helps
4. Continue until confident or limit reached

Output Format

Copy**Location Analysis**

Observed Clues:
- [Key observations with confidence]

Reasoning Process:
- [Hypothesis formation and verification]

**Conclusion**
- Most likely location: [As specific as evidence allows]
- Confidence: High/Medium/Low
- Key evidence: [Primary determinants]
- Uncertainties: [What remains unclear]
