Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure relate to identifying visited travel destinations from a set of digital images associated with users of a social networking system. For example, one or more computing devices provide access to an individual user's account, including the individual user and other users affiliated with the individual user via the social networking system. One or more digital images are received from a computing device associated with the individual user and from one or more second computing devices associated with the other users of the social networking system. From each digital image, a geo-location is determined for each digital image. The one or more computing devices display each geo-located image on a map at a position corresponding to the determined geo-location for the geo-located image.
