Jeremy Zucker — Comethru | Video Location | GEOINT | NUST CTF 23'

This writeup is all about GEOINT and using landmarks to identify exact locations from merely any video.

This is the video location we are going to hunt.

Starting off, we have some of the landmarks from the video

Here we see a tall white building, which looks like CN Tower from Canada. We can search it to confirm that this building is in fact CN Tower

Okay so now that we know we are hunting near CN Tower. We search for this on Google Earth Pro. Now we look more into the video to see that we can draw a rough line of sight with CN Tower and the other tower on its left.

We plot this approximate Line of Sight (LOS)on Google Earth Pro.

Now I moved in this LOS for some distance. Also we can see two more landmarks in the video which will help us with moving the distance in LOS.

I move approximately one block in LOS to look for these two landmarks

These buildings somehow look similar to what we are looking for, lets check on Street View.

The video is from 2018 and the Street View is from 2020 hence a bit different but from the structure we confirm we are near. Now I start looking for rooftops with similar AC vents and outer units.

This region seems near to what we are looking for so I searched the rooftops in this area.

Note how there is a Street near the shooting location.

This area resembles alot with our location. We are exactly in LOS with CN Tower in the right direction to our North-East. At our approximate South East, we have the two other landmark buildings.

Moreover the street end is also there at this locality and look at the AC Vents too.

Zucker is standing on a brown roof.

Therefore we can confirm that the exact location where Jeremy Zucker was standing the whole time was:

The coordinates of the exact approximate location are:

43°38'53.27'’N 79°24'05.91'’W or 43.648131, -79.401642
