The restaurant

Here is a good example of effective use of Geopix. We made a web page for a small restaurant in a village named Hol, in Hallingdal, Norway. Their products are top shelf, high class, using award-winning foods in their production. And their owner wants to write a blog.

Looking for relevant assets nearby? We've got you covered

The restaurant was happy with the simple web page, which included a variety of good images to choose from during the website creation process.

However, when they asked us to create a blog (it's clever to have a blog, by the way), they were unsure if they had relevant images and content to write about—mostly because this kind of work takes a lot of valuable production time.

We respect that creativity takes time. Let’s test the power of Geopix AI.

How do we start?

• We know the general description of the business (Stundo.no).
• We know their target group.
• We found an openly licensed image from a nearby location available under a Creative Commons license.
• Next step: Let our integrated AI engine suggest the relevance.

Here is a screenshot of the location map from the open-licensed photo platform:

In Craft CMS (illustrated below)

1. Search for an image using the Geopix AI integration under Assets.
2. If an image is found under an open Creative Commons license, press “Add to assets”. If not, press “Request” to automatically ask the photographer for permission to use the image.
3. Optional: Press “Relevance” and have Geopix AI suggest how to write (not what to write) based on your business and the image.
4. Continue writing your article with a more relevant visual asset.

Step by step (detailed):

1. AI prompt (highlighted text is replacement by our short codes as mentioned in the other blog post):
   
   With the purpose of enriching the website and writing relevant content, make a suggestion on how Stundo, which specializes in Local food produced in a restaurant near Hol Ysteri, at the location Hol, Norway, with their target audience being People interested in local foods, great concerts, events, and a sustainable lifestyle, can use a photo from Myro, Buskerud, Norway, where the photo title reads View on Hol, Norway, and the photo description is as following: The lake in the center of the photo is Holsfjorden….
   
   

2. Our integrated AI model suggests the following:
   
   [introduction above].
   
   Develop a blog post or article titled “From Mountain to Table: The Journey of Our Ingredients,” using the image to illustrate the restaurant’s commitment to using local, sustainable products from the Hol region.
   
   [more information below].
   
   

3. The Creative Commons license dictates the following:
   
   • You are free to: Share — copy and redistribute the material in any medium or format.
   • Under the following terms: Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.
   • NonCommercial — You may not use the material for commercial purposes.
   • NoDerivatives — If you remix, transform, or build upon the material, you may not distribute the modified material.
   • No additional restrictions — You may not apply legal terms or technological measures that legally restrict others from doing anything the license permits.
   
   That’s why we have the Geopix AI icon. It will float above any image used by our plugin, linking back to the original post, the license, and crediting the creator on mouseover/hover. Examples as follows:

How it would look at our example blog

Below: Image used without credit to the creator (bad practise)

Below: Image with the Geopix AI plugin and proper credit (good practise)

• Geopix AI icon always at 5–10% size relative to image size
• Geopix AI icon always at 3–5% padding
• Geopix AI icon always at 50% opacity (before mouseover)

Below: Image with mouseover / hover and link to the original photography and creator.

• Geopix AI icon on hover shows the creator’s username
• Geopix AI icon is red or gray, depending on user settings
• Geopix AI icon returns to 50% opacity on mouseleave

How it would display at the actual web site

Here’s a screenshot of how it would look on the Stundo website

The alternative

Yes, you might find alternatives at stock-photo services. But they are likely not relevant, or even geographically near the business.

Even if you found one image for illustration purposes, you might not have a clue on how to incorporate it for the website in question.

Homage to the creative

We wish both Stundo.no (the restaurant) and the photographer the best of luck in pursuing their journey to having more visitors and customers in their respective fields of business.

Geopix AI with Craft CMS would have helped them both.
