abstract = {The current collaborative context and resource sharing that drives Web 2.0 is gaining importance within academia and industry, which is stimulating the development of new techniques for content retrieval, sharing and analysis over user-generated media content. This poses new challenges and research opportunities in spatial-based discovery media resources over varied sources, since location context is being increasingly supported in most of these social networks and services. In this paper, we present a virtual globe tool for searching and visualizing geo-referenced media resources. Our approach is based on the integration of search technologies, description languages for annotating collections of geo-referenced media resources and visualization techniques. The combination of these techniques is materialized in a virtual globe-based tool to facilitate searching and presentation of geo-referenced media resources available in different social networks.},
