Geolocation Reasoning

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

Core Workflow

1. Visual Clue Extraction

Category	Look for
Text/Signage	Languages, scripts, street signs, license plates, phone formats
Infrastructure	Road markings, traffic lights, poles, utilities, bollards
Architecture	Materials, styles, roof types, density patterns
Nature	Vegetation, terrain, geology, sun position, weather
Culture	Vehicles, driving side, clothing, shops, brands

2. Hypothesis Formation

Form hypotheses at multiple scales:

Scale	Example
Continent/Region	Europe, Southeast Asia
Country	Specific nation
Region/State	Sub-national
City/Town	Locality
Precise	Street-level

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

Strategy	Query pattern
Sign text	`"[exact text]" location`
Features	`[feature] [suspected region]`
Business	`"[name]" address`
Landmark	`[description] landmark [region]`
Road	`[designation] [country]`

Cross-reference multiple clues, look for consistent attribution.

5. Iterative Refinement

After each cycle:

Update hypothesis confidence
Identify remaining uncertainties
Determine if more examination helps
Continue until confident or limit reached

Output Format

**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]

Important Considerations

Aspect	Guideline
Confidence	High requires multiple independent confirmations
Single clues	Can mislead (similar signage in multiple countries)
Privacy	Don't identify individuals or residential addresses
Iteration	Max 5 cycles, stop when marginal value low
