摘要:
Systems, methods, and computer storage mediums are provided for using photo animation transitions to mask latency. An example method includes loading a first photographic image in response to a user request. The user request is associated with a zoom-level and a set of geographic coordinates and the first photographic image is associated with a first set of image tiles. A second photographic image is requested via a network request. The second photographic image is associated with a second set of image tiles. While the network request is processed, a first animation effect is applied to the portion of the first photographic image displayed within a viewport, in which a resolution of the first photographic image is incrementally decreased for each image tile of the first set of image tiles corresponding to the portion of the first photographic image displayed within the viewport.

Embodiments of the invention include a system, method and computer-readable medium for viewing images in a three-dimensional environment. A user is identified. A social graph of the identified user and a plurality of other users is accessed. Based on the social graph, a plurality of images associated with one or more of the other users in the social graph are determined. The plurality of images and data are provided to a client device, wherein the data enables the display of the images in the 3D environment, at the client device.

Systems, methods, and computer storage mediums are provided for incentivizing users to contribute content in a controlled manner. A method includes receiving content and metadata associated with the content from a user. The content relates to a geolocation and the metadata includes geolocation information that relates to the content. It is then determined whether the content and the associated metadata meet a threshold of specific criteria. The specific criteria is based on a set of rules that determines an amount of points awarded to the user for providing content that satisfies the specific criteria. The specific criteria include at least a geolocation or geolocated area. If the content meets the threshold of the specific criteria, points are awarded to the user. The amount of points is based on a comparison of the content and the associated metadata with the specific criteria.
