Place detection in images on windows phone - algorithm

I'm woking now on my senior project, it about identify the places through pictures on windows phone 8 platform.
Any libraries or algorithms could help me ?

if the data is embedded in the image: see How to get the EXIF data from a file using C#
if not: Then perhaps a google api may help, I don't know Google's APIs but here is an article which may give you some idea for what to search for: http://www.labnol.org/internet/find-picture-location/21273/

Google Vision Logo Detection API supported logos

Does anyone have list of all supported logos by Google Vision API Logo Detection. In the documentation it just mentions that it supports over 0.1 million logos. Does anyone have any further information on this. Thanks.
As far as I know - No, this data is not published.
"Logo Detection detects popular product logos within an image."
If you need this information because you want to know if the specific logo you are looking for is exist if it's not popular probably not.
You can try tou use AutoML and this question maybe relevant Can Google Cloud Vision API be trained using your image data?

Using Google Drive Document OCR from Parse Cloud Code

I would like to build an app using Ionic/Parse that allows me to take a picture with a mobile device camera, and do text processing of the image. From what I gather open source libraries are a little finicky, so for the purposes of prototyping I was hoping to use Google Drive's OCR capabilities.
The user would take a picture of a document, and my Cloud Code would send the picture to google drive, perform the ocr, and on ocr success, the picture would be sent back to my Parse db.
I am looking for some wisdom on this approach...Is this realistic or am I just totally off my rocker? Is there perhaps a service that integrates the two things? Am I just going to waste the same amount of time getting this to work as I would trying to integrate an open source OCR library? From an implementation prospective, would I run into authentication/data format/whathaveyou issues?
Hoping for some, been there tried that, these are some useful lessons..
Thanks!
Disclosure: I run this service.
Approach seems reasonable. http://ocrestful.com does exactly what you're describing, via an all-REST API. Permanently free tier available.

Are there any advanced apps that are built using fabric js?

I got lots of simple apps or examples that are built using Fabric.js.
Can I use Fabric.js for making advanced applications? I want to check some apps and see it's performance so that I would confirm that Fabric.js can handle big apps too.
We built Fabric specifically to power design editor on Printio.ru. It's used by 1000+ visitors daily.
From other big sites there's easel.ly — visual themes creation tool. Also mywallsticker.de, scrollkit.com, and others.
Large sites that using FabricJS are listed here https://github.com/kangax/fabric.js/wiki/Who%27s-using-Fabric
http://printio.ru/ is the one of best one, what kind of advance apps you are looking for ?
check out the discussion on google groups

you will get some idea

Microsoft phone application attaching a image in email

Is it possible to attach a image file in windows mobile phone application developed in 7.5? i have searched many websites but can't find any solution . please help me if there is any.I have downloaded this code http://www.xdevsoftware.com/blog/post/File-Upload-in-Silverlight-3.aspx but ain't able to run. I faced a problem with silverlight convertion. They said i need to install some component which will match with them.
It's not possible.
The only solution is either send the email using some dedicated web service you can create, or encode the image into Base64 and add it directly to the body of the email.
Sadly nothing has changed in this matter in Windows Phone 8.
Another route you can take, which may not apply to your situation as you don't provide much detail on what your app does, is to use the Live SDK. If you integrate your app into Skydrive you can send images and video via proxy (a SkyDrive link).
This is how I've approached the issue in my app Video Journal.

Programmatic access of SkyDrive

Does anyone know how to access SkyDrive programmatically from Windows Phone 7? What API do I use? I need to upload files from the Phone to SkyDrive and vice versa.
Some code samples would be great. :-)
You can now officially integrate parts of SkyDrive with Windows Phone 7 applications.
Details outlined here.
There is a new Live SDK available from Microsoft which I think can do this. It's also in a very early alpha or beta state:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb264574.aspx
I have developed a sample based on SkyPad (Developer Preview). Please install the Windows Live Developer preview SDK.
The sample allows to save a file to SkyDrive and dowload it again after saving.
Here the link:
http://blog.mecum.biz/2011/10/windows-phone-7-mango-skydrive-sample/
You can use the Live SDK to integrate SkyDrive into your Windows Phone applications. Please see our code samples on GitHub.
Not an answer, but there's hope that an answer is on the way:
However, when Mike Torres was asked about features such as better usability, third-party API support, Windows Live Mesh integration, and expandable storage, he acknowledged that these are "top asks" for SkyDrive and said that they are currently "hard at work on SkyDrive as we speak"

Your requirements sound pretty much like mine - you just want to use skydrive as a basic cloud filesystem.
I thought Matt's suggestion was an outstanding idea. I obtained the library and set out to port it, but unfortunately the codebase is huge and elaborate and absolutely riddled with the [Serializable] attribute which is not compatible with WP7. It also makes extensive use of several pieces of framework not available in WP7x, including X509Chain and Authorization.
SkyDriveApi is not even compatible with VS2010 - an attempted conversion produced a big mess so I just tried it out in VS2008.
We could always write one. This looks like a fair bit of work so I invite you to collaborate.
Well, it's feature complete and working a treat. I'd like to thank people for all the support and assistance I received reverse engineering the protocol using Fiddler, and coding, testing and debugging the prototype into production ready code. I'd like to, but nobody contributed a damn thing. Good luck writing your own.
SkyDrive doesn't have an official API but here are some unofficial ones. I'd start by looking at http://skydriveapiclient.codeplex.com/.
It doesn't claim support for WP7 but you may be able to port it.
