Welcome to the youtube-geofind wiki!

How does this app work?

The YouTube API search endpoint provides location and radius parameters. The map itself and other inputs make it easy to set and visualize the location coordinates and area radius that you want.

How accurate are the location values returned?

It is important to note and as far as I know, the location on a video must be manually set via the YouTube Studio. The location must be a valid location that you can find in Google Maps. The name of that location will be the displayed locationDescription. However, there are cases where the locationDescription is missing. I do not know for sure but I believe that they may have been valid Maps locations that no longer exist so only display coordinates.
