I looking for a suitable one for an application and have not really come across anything that will fit my needs. Thanks!

I've been looking for a replacement for FlickrImportr and have not found anything close to being able to replace it. I only recently just started geotagging (gps showed up in the last 2 weeks + vacation in Hawaii) and have been working on incorporating into the workflow. In my opinion, there is a lack of a good industrial strength image uploader (it's amazing how many sites/apps do multiple file upload BADLY) to the various online sites as well as a visualizer of all the trips to different places. I would be interested in collaborating if you are open to it. --Jauder Kevin,

Right now you said you drag-and-drop the photos to geocode them. But why don't you tie into the Bus Tour location API to get the location of the bus compared against the capture timestamp of the photos to give a preliminary geotag, or at least zoom the map. For non-Bus tour applications, you could instead point to other location API's, such as Plazes, Jaiku, FireEagle, TwitterVision, etc. to get a user's approximate location with the timestamp.

I've been trying to find the time to build some app that would work in a similar way but other more important projects stand in the way. Actually I was thinking of doing one of them using AIR but the learning curve scared my a little bit. I'll try to keep up with your project to offer ideias and maybe learn something in the process. Looking at the interface, the first thing I remember that could be usefull to add is a textbox so the user can search for an area in the map.
