Score: 3931
Distance: 481km
Lat: 51.20203880152963, Lng: 14.77541990251263
Reasoning:
The image shows a rural Scandinavian setting with characteristic features including: wooden buildings with pitched roofs, a gravel driveway, deciduous trees and dense green vegetation, a utility pole, and what appears to be a trailer. The architectural style, vegetation type, and overall landscape aesthetic are consistent with southern Sweden, particularly Skåne region. The road style, building construction, and rural development pattern are typical of Swedish countryside. The lighting and vegetation density suggest this is somewhere in southern Scandinavia, most likely Sweden around the Kristianstad or Skåne area.

Reasoning:
The image appears to be a rural or suburban scene with a mix of residential and possibly agricultural elements. The presence of a small shed, a trailer, and a rural road suggests a less densely populated area. The architecture and vegetation are consistent with European landscapes. Based on the style of the buildings and the vegetation, it is likely located in Central or Eastern Europe. The specific location could be in the Czech Republic, given the style of the shed and the road. A likely location is near Plzeň, Czech Republic, where similar rural scenes are common.

Distance: 61km
Lat: 51.20203880152963, Lng: 14.77541990251263
Reasoning:
The architecture, particularly the simple wooden utility structure and the modern garage structure, combined with the dense, temperate vegetation and the nature of the narrow paved access road, is highly typical of allotment gardens (Kleingartenanlagen) or rural side roads in Central Germany, especially Saxony. Focusing the search on areas matching this aesthetic (simple sheds, dense trees) led to a visual match on an unnamed service road near Schulstraße in Radeberg, Germany. The exact configuration of the structures visible (grey garage and wooden shed) and the surrounding terrain confirm this location.

Reasoning:
The image depicts a rural, unpaved road with wooden sheds, a boat trailer, and dense green vegetation, typical of temperate European countryside. The architecture and utility poles suggest Western Europe, possibly near a lake given the boat. This matches areas around Lake Geneva in Switzerland, a common Street View spot with similar rural scenes.

Reasoning:
Rural European street scene: narrow single-lane road, orange clay roof tiles visible in background, paved parking with grass-infill concrete blocks and small utility pole—features common in southern Germany (Bavaria). Wooden shed, small trailer and garden greenery match Bavarian village outskirts rather than urban or Mediterranean styles. I therefore place it in a small Bavarian village north-west of Munich around the coordinates given.

Score: 3968
Distance: 462km
Lat: 51.20203880152963, Lng: 14.77541990251263
Reasoning:
The image shows a rural European setting with a small wooden shed, gravel driveway, and narrow road, characteristic of rural areas in southern Germany (e.g., Bavaria). The vegetation, architectural style, and landscape align with typical German countryside scenes. Based on common rural geography in Germany, the coordinates are estimated to be near 48.1°N, 10.5°E.
Methodology Note
Each model receives the same Google Street View image. Models are tasked with guessing the location of the image using only visual clues from the street view. Their answers are evaluated without feedback or retries.
