First Claim
1. A method for identifying visited travel destinations from a set of digital images associated with users of a social networking system, the method comprising:
- providing, by one or more computing devices, access to an individual user'"'"'s account, including the individual user and other users affiliated with the individual user via the social networking system;
receiving, by the one or more computing devices, one or more digital images from a computing device associated with the individual user and from one or more second computing devices associated with the other users of the social networking system;
determining, by the one or more computing devices, from each digital image, a geo-location for each digital image;
computing a user travel score for a user of the social networking system who is either the individual user or affiliated with the individual user from the geo-located images from the user of the social networking system, wherein the user travel score is computed by;
determining the number of unique landmarks from among the user'"'"'s geo-located images, andcomputing the user travel score for the user based on the determined number of unique landmarks; and
displaying, by the one or more computing devices, each geo-located image on a map at a position corresponding to the determined geo-location for the geo-located image and the user travel score.

Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure relate to identifying visited travel destinations from a set of digital images associated with users of a social networking system. For example, one or more computing devices provide access to an individual user'"'"'s account, including the individual user and other users affiliated with the individual user via the social networking system. One or more digital images are received from a computing device associated with the individual user and from one or more second computing devices associated with the other users of the social networking system. From each digital image, a geo-location is determined for each digital image. The one or more computing devices display each geo-located image on a map at a position corresponding to the determined geo-location for the geo-located image.
