Abstract
Given the GPS coordinates of a user, the orientation of their camera, and the linear distance to the Point-of-Interest (POI) being photographed, we determine the GPS coordinates of the POI. We derive the analytical expressions that relate the input data to the POI coordinates for the most general case. Approximate forms of the equations are also derived, in two different ways, for the more common case of the POI in the immediate neighbourhood of the user.
