This seems to be missing from the newer Photos app. I've looked in the
help section, which apart from being inexplicably slow to use, shows
screenshots from a seemingly different application, and seems to suggest
it's not there. I can search by location, but there's no way to get this
map overview, which I found useful.

Is there an application for Mac that has this feature? Or am I missing
something?

Location data is picked up from the meta data of the image.
If it exists then 'get info' on the selected image (there is an icon on
the menu bar) will bring up that information together with a map showing
the location.


Yes, sorry, I wasn't clear. I was after a map overview of all of the
photos. So a scalable map (a map that scales between different, er,
scales - 1:1000, 1:1,000,000, etc), from the world, down to my street,
with pins to indicate where a photo was taken.

I did a websearch for ya:

This stuff is USD 3.99:
