Description

Sometimes pictures don't have correct geotags - either the wrong place or no geo-info at all.

To correct a wrong geo-place it's really great to use the move-feature of 'maps' to easily update the place of photos taken.

What I'm missing is geo-tagging for pictures with no geo-information at all. They simply don't appear on the map, so can't be moved around (obviously). What I'm looking for is a kind of place on the webpage that contains all of the photos without geotagging, so one could take photos out of it and move it onto the map.

Hope, I did not overlook something, but searching around did not reveal anything yet...

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by tracing how photos without geodata are filtered from the map and how the existing move feature updates locations. Done means users can find untagged photos in the webpage and move them onto the map with a location.
