Field Lens
Where the archive becomes visible in place.
A Lens-like layer for Dr. Sudha’s field archive: coordinates, map cards, inferred photo locations, related stories, songs, and a mobile augmented overlay for selected places.
5 Tier 1 placesHavana · Fort Cochin · Quiberon · Paramaribo · Turtle Island
Built deliberately: rich where the archive is strong, cautious where location should remain regional.
Phase 1
Coordinates, map cards, stories and songs.
Each card has coordinates, confidence, Google Maps access, related archive notes, and soundtrack linkage where available.
India · high confidence
Fort Cochin / Kerala
Arabian Sea, old port streets, synagogue memory, temple bells, mosque calls, church lamps, hospitality, and slowness.
Where many prayers become one song.

Phase 2
AI Photo Atlas: inferred location + visual tags.
The first pass combines parent-post context, filename clues, curated location data, and visual labeling. Exact GPS was not preserved in the Blogger media, so confidence is explicit.
Havana / Malecón
Havana field-memory cover: sea wall atmosphere, night warmth, and social rhythm.
High: matched to Cuba/Havana soundtrack and archive terms.
Fort Cochin / Kerala
Kerala hospitality and food culture; a visual anchor for Cochin as slowness and care.
High: image filename and parent archive theme indicate Kerala hospitality.
Fort Cochin / Kerala
Cochin as layered faith and port memory, presented as soundtrack artwork.
High: manually curated Tier 1 place asset.
Quiberon / Brittany
France as table, weather, friendship, and metabolic rhythm.
High: matched to France soundtrack package.
Paramaribo / Suriname
Suriname field context: place, food culture, prevention, and current inquiry.
Medium-high: curated from project assets; exact image location remains inferred.
Native America / Turtle Island
Indigenous health and cultural memory represented with consent-aware, regional framing.
Regional: intentionally not pinned to a private or over-specific location.
Phase 3
Mobile AR overlay for selected places.
Browser-based overlay: if WebXR AR is unavailable, the site opens a camera-backed field card fallback. It is intentionally limited to selected places, not the whole archive.
How it works
Tap a place card on mobile. The camera layer opens with the place name, quote, map link, story link, and soundtrack where available.
