ViewFrom Tags

For use with images linked to the Saltair Rail Car group, this diagram shows which tag letter to use to indicate approximately from which direction the picture was taken.

 

The ViewFrom tag has the format: position VF direction

where position is O(utside), I(nside)

and direction is N(orth), NE(orth East), E(ast) etc.

 

Examples:

OVFN meaning outside view from north

IVFSE meaning inside view from south-east

 

This sounds complicated but works e.g. if the tag was simply the direction, S would return in a search many irrelevant images.

The position enables selection of images from just outside or inside

The direction enables selection of particular sides or faces of the rail car.
