1. A computer-implemented method for displaying location imagery in context with a video stream, the method comprising:

  • extracting locational metadata from a set of video data, the video data comprising a plurality of frames;

    identifying a set of geographic locations associated with the plurality of frames based on the locational metadata;

    generating a set of location imagery associated with the set of geographic locations, the location imagery comprising a set of map features;

    displaying the set of map features of the set of location imagery as an overlay superimposed over the plurality of frames wherein the set of map features of the overlay annotate in frame the set of geographic locations associated with the plurality of frames;

    synchronizing the overlay of the set of map features to the plurality of frames based on the set of geographic locations, the synching comprising;

    playing a set of frames of the plurality of frames; and

    displaying, in time with the playing, the overlay of the set of map features annotating the geographic location of each of the played set of frames;

    configuring the set of location imagery to comprise a set of map features associated with a geographic location adjacent to the set of geographic locations associated with the plurality of frames, the adjacent geographic location not being associated with the plurality of frames;

    connecting the set of map features associated with the geographic location adjacent to the set of geographic locations associated with the plurality of frames to the overlay of the set of map features annotating the geographic location of at least one of the played set of frames; and

    permitting, in response to a user interaction, navigation of the location imagery beyond the set of location imagery associated with the set of geographic locations associated with the plurality of frames by permitting navigation of the set of map features associated with the geographic location adjacent to the set of geographic locations associated with the plurality of frames.
