Semantic search for Montreal's historical photo archives

Started as an Instagram account sharing old Montreal photos from the city's Open Data portal. Now grown to ~3k followers and evolved into a full semantic search platform for ~15,000 historical images (1870s-1990s).

Built a complete data pipeline and search API with sub-50ms response times globally:

  • Semantic search using BGE text embeddings on Cloudflare Vectorize
  • Visual similarity search with CLIP embeddings (in development)
  • ETL pipeline: metadata cleaning, date normalization, deduplication, geocoding
  • VLM auto-captioning and OCR for data enrichment
  • Next.js frontend with Mapbox integration for geospatial browsing

Stack: Cloudflare Workers, D1, Vectorize, R2, Workers AI, Next.js, TypeScript, Python
