How to Add Nearby Places to a Drone Photo

A practical workflow for turning a drone photo into a labeled aerial image with editable amenity pins.

Aerial photos show a property and its surroundings in one frame. Adding a few clear labels can make that frame easier to scan and share. Start with the right image Choose a high-resolution drone or aerial photo with the property and recognizable surroundings visible. Leave room around the subject for labels, and avoid an image where important roads or landmarks are hidden by the crop. Add a home anchor and nearby places Place the home pin first. Then add only the nearby places that help explain the image: a park, trailhead, school, grocery store, transit stop, or shopping area. A small set of intentional pins is usually easier to read than a dense collection of markers. Review before export Check each label, pin position, and estimated drive-time or distance display. AerialTag uses available image geolocation or camera metadata and mapping data to assist with placement, but the exported image should always be reviewed and edited by its creator. The takeaway A labeled aerial image is a simple visual reference: upload the photo, add and edit nearby-place pins, then export the finished image.
