Design and Implementation of Optimal Path Search Service Using GPS Information in Photo File

In this paper, we designed and implemented path search system using GPS information in photo. The system extracts EXIF information included in a photo to get path information and performs path search by applying the shortest path algorithm with the use of GPS information out of information, which was extracted in this way. And then it shows the obtained path information on web by utilizing Yahoo Map API. For this, the system is designed using a method of extracting location information in a photo and path sorting through applying the shortest path algorithm. UI(User Interface) was implemented using Yahoo Map API. Based on that, we implemented path search service using photo file that is included GPS information.
