[josm-dev] geotagged images proposal

[Женя Деревянкин]

Hi, list

Recently, I've started photo-mapping, and found JOSM very useful for
aligning the pictures along the track.
But I think it would also be useful if JOSM could export the
coordinates back into the images, so that they could be used in the
future for some other projects, like OpenStreetPhoto.

Moreover, I've looked at the OpenStreetPhoto wiki page, and they
currently have a very simple image upload scheme - you just need to
put the geotagged images to
ftp://openstreetphoto.org/UPLOADHERE/<username>/ (I don't know if it
actually works, I've uploaded a few geotagged pictures there for a
test. Haven't got many of those)

So maybe that can also be incorporated into JOSM - then people can
open a GPX file, import images, syncronize the clock, draw everything,
and then - upload the photoes to OpenStreetPhoto for future use (by
other users, by data extraction programs, etc)

I'm not a programmer myself, so I'd like to hear your opinion, wether
it is difficult to implement such functionality into JOSM
