[since the last conversation switched to english, I'll start directly
with it]

This is a rather practical question about keeping details/data to map
hiking relations. I'd like to know how others are doing it and see if
there's a better way.

I was able to map all the hiking relations starting from Oberinn/Wangen:

http://map.gegg.us/?zoom=12&lat=46.49848&lon=11.3355&layers=0000B00000000FFTTFF

this includes also many other partial relations from Oberinn towards
Tann/Klobenstein/Oberbozen/... of which I still don't have enough
knowledge to verify the entire relation.

Whenever I pass in front of a hiking guidepost and/or a relevant detail
of the hiking trail I take a geotagged photo.

So far, I have more than 250 photos of the area (~100 guideposts),
including countless gps tracks.

Whenever I can see (from the previous guideposts photos) that I have the
entire hiking path (verified from start to finish) I add the hiking
relation and complete it.

I've also started to add partial relations for guideposts I've
passed-by, since I realized it's easier for others to see where the
hiking paths are going through. In this case I mark the relation with a
fixme, and I also started to mark with a fixme the last known node of
the relation.

Unfortunately, without the photos themselves, it's sometimes still hard,
for somebody else, to understand where exactly a path ends.

I've also uploaded several gps tracks, though I found later that without
photos they are also mostly useless due to the poor resolution of the
gps, and also due to the massive editing required for a meaningful track
(I've taken the habit to just cut-through the woods/terrain to go
towards the regions I'm mapping). That being said, I upload them if I
followed a known path from start to finish.

At this point I'm wondering if there's something we can do to upload
these geotagged photos somewhere. They are incredibly useful for those
that are willing to complete the hiking relations. Not to mention that
it's also countless hours of actual hiking involved...

Ideas?
