[OSM-talk] Announce: Another JOSM plugin for PhotoMapping (MOM users, take note)

Hello List,

"ImageWayPoint", a new plugin for JOSM, is intended to help with
photo-mapping, and may be useful to people who use "mom" [1] to create
GPX track logs. "mom" stores the image name in the waypoint inside the
GPX file. This plugin matches filenames stored in the waypoint to
images loaded into JOSM.

* Installation

Install in the usual way. In the "Plugins" part of the JOSM
"Preferences" dialog, download the list of plugins, select
"ImageWayPoint" from the list and press OK. Restart JOSM.

* Usage

Open a GPX file in JOSM like normal. Then use the "File->Open Images
with ImageWayPoint" to load your images. When images can be matched to
waypoints, they'll appear on a new layer. Images can be rotated as
necessary.

* Credits

This code is strongly influenced by (and the icons shamelessly stolen
from) AgPifoJ. Thanks to Christian Gallioz for making AgPifoJ, and its
source code, available.

Feedback welcome :-)

Matthew
