With the right kit it is very easy to do, it lets anyone with a PC see where the picture was taken on the planets surface via Google Earth, or simply read the Lat/ Long where you were stood when you took the picture, have a look Here
Well you did say you didn't know what the term was meaning Wink

how can i find out when and who submitted a camera 1st.
I submitted a camera and it was verifed by Andy_P and now it has appeared on this weeks release, but it seems i haven't been given an reward, so i'm trying to find out who submitted it and when before me as i seriously thought i was the 1st to submit that camera.

Please. please don't take this the wrong way, but it's simply not possible for MaFt to do all the research involved EVERY TIME someone asks this.

If you get notified, you were the first... If you don't, you weren't, it's as simple as that.

As this has been discussed over and over again, can we point you to the FAQs:

I appreciate what you say Andy but this always seems unfair
I have submitted cameras before and once again not achieved anything.
There seems no point in submitting the cameras, because it is so hard to get a lifetime reward.
I would be nice to know who is 1st and exactly how many submitted a particular camera, becase the way the current system works, its not worth doing it anymore.

Surely the real reason for submitting cameras is to make the database more accurate for everyone? If your prime concern is to get something for nothing, then may I respectfully suggest that this is not the place to do it.

With the current reduction in the annual subscription, a cost of less than 5p per day for a facility that could save you a £60 fine and three points seems to me to be a no-brainer.

Please keep submitting - I will, whenever I see a new / removed / changed site. If I get a Lifetime membership, I'll say 'Thanks' if I don't, I'll say 'maybe next time'.

And what good will it do if you are told who the first person was to report it? All you'll know is a Username, which won't be yours, because somebody else was first. How is this going to help you?

By the way, I'm a lifetime member, and I continue to submit cameras when I see them, for no added benefit to myself - not because I want to stop somone else from receiving Lifetime Membership, but because I want to see the quality of the data available on this site to be of the highest quality possible.
