Quick #OSINT Thread: how to determine the exact location of a photographer, time, date... from an image and a few other details. A few months back I ran some training on the matter... Where is this? (1)
(2) Reverse image search of the little red sign, reveals its owner, the SBB, Swiss rail service. Check IP address via IP Lookup, which narrows it down to Zürich City... (use a web scraper to create a polygon area for location estimates) iplocation.net

(3) By now, it should have dawned on you, which Hotel building the shadow throws onto a train station and the name of a new popuphotel. Dare a guess for the wifi name, via Wigle shows you access points... another way of confirming the location...

(4) Or use an img metadata analysis, to add details on time and day, the image was taken (reconfirm with a shadow analysis)...

(5) To judge which floor the photograph lives on:
We know opposite Andreastower (22floors), equivalent to floor 9 (count to the ground). Knowing that our building (Swissôtel) has 32 floors we calc: 32*9/22 equals roughly floor 13 on our side (or peak analysis bg.)
