Not sure what the encoding is. I've tried the "letter to number" encryption which gives:
13 1 7 9 3 9.19 5 5 1 2 5 1 3 8, 25 5 19.9 5 24 16 12 15 18 5 4 1 25 12 9 7 8 20
Simply adding the numbers, grouped before + after decimal point leads to:
42.2920, -49.120
but this isn't the correct answer

It is a bunch of numbers being recited (though I don't know the significance of the static image):
"053 050 046 049 056 050 049 044 032 050 048 046 057 057 054 053" It then pauses and repeats for exactly 5 minutes.
Translated (by others in this thread), it turns into 52.1821, 20.9965, which brings you to the number 18, in Poland. It also links to this Google Drive folder titled "Latest Discoveries":

This has a few photos of statues of the Buddha and a couple of temples. I find the photo that looks corrupted the most interesting, as I think there is data hidden in there (similar to 4chan.js if you've ever heard of that).
The file names of the photos are shrine.jpg, statue.jpg, spire.jpg, pillar.jpg, and cave.jpg.

Edit: Had an extra number in it. Oops.

------------------------------------vStart from top-left, move the number of spaces given by the number of your current square:
down right left down right right up down down right down
It's a maze; worked backwards from the numbers that have commas and points next to them.
Number: 19; Title: Thailand https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipMNGiEkdfeZKK5uus5iOmt-...
So, maybe where the chess pieces have been moved from?
Start at the end. That's a 9. The only way that we could have landed on that 9 is either moving down or right. So, look at each number on that path and see which one would have got us there. There is an 8 that is 8 squares above 9, so that's the second last number. Now, how did we land on the 8? There is a 1 that is one square to the left, so the next number is 1. And so on.
base64 decode "Where have you been?"
I feel the pawns on the left are somehow significant 4-3-2-1...

Looks like caves.jpg has something wrong with it, but I'm not sure what to do with it.

------------------------------------vPei Xiu outlined six principles that should be observed when creating a map. He then defended his position and each of the six principles with a short explanation as to how they provide better accuracy in map-making and cartography. The first three principles outlined the use of scale (fan lu), direction (zhunwang), and road distance (daoli), while the last three principles are used to properly calculate distances on uneven terrain as represented on a flat, two dimensional map

If you take out the other text, we're left with "._,-.-". Removing the comma leaves us with 5 characters "._-.-" Morse code?
