Hello Simon,

Geovisio is the reference code base for the Panoramax project (think of 
Geovisio as one of OSM code stacks, and Panoramax as the OSM project as 
a whole).

What we try to do is to set open standards to allow different 
implementation of the common protocols to provide interoperability 
betweens instances. I would love to see local instances setup in the 
future all federated.

We decided to use an existing standard called STAC (Statio Temporal 
Assets Catalog) to avoid creating one more new standard. Geovisio 
originally has its own API, but now moved to STAC which is REST/JSON.

Anybody implementing a STAC API based viewer should be compatible. This 
API allows to search for pictures based on time and location (at least). 
Pictures are organized as collections.


The current work is focused on uploading pictures, bluring them to 
respect privacy, access them thru the STAC API used by the Geovisio viewer.

The additional pieces that would be great to have next are: mobile app 
to capture pictures, usefull object detection for OSM reuse (I'm working 
on road signs), OSM editors integration.
