[OSM-Photos] Popup to show larger size pictures on OSV

[John McKerrell]

Hi Oliver

Sorry, looks like OSV is off the screen in my mail client and I'm really busy at the moment so haven't been checking my mailing lists.

Any feedback is welcome - the user experience isn't perfect but I think it works OK.  The way the panning and popups work may cause trouble on some small screens.  Please note that my programming skills are limited so I may struggle to improve on what I have done so far!

Glad it was of use :-)

As 3D models develop, it may also be possible to use the photos in combination with the models to create ground level perspective views that merge the two.

Sounds very interesting. Unfortunately I'm spending about as much time with OSM as I am with OSV these days so hadn't heard about 3D attributes.

Will make some more comments on github too now,
