I upload all the photos I took during my mapping journeys. I'm not a photographer and I'm sure a photographer would abhorr those pictures. Sometimes taken from a riding bicycle or a moving horse... They are meant to be informative, that's all.<br>
<br>Openstreetview.org will never be a direct competitor to GSV, as we simply don't have the technology nor the manpower nor the server space to make and store panoramic photos every 15m.<br><br>Polyglot<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

Hi,<br>
What is the aim of OpenStreetView - Is it a potential Google<br>
StreetView counterpart intended for viewing by general public (And<br>
therefore all photos must be nice, high technical quality, blue sky,<br>
around noon) ORIs it a help tool for OSM mappers (and therefore it is<br>
important what can be used as mapping support and the photos can be<br>
less nice, bad weather, dark - as long as they are informative)?<br>
Thanks for answers<br>
