I often use Wikimedia Commons.
There is an app that can both upload photos already taken and start a
photo-app from the commons app.

https://f-droid.org/en/packages/fr.free.nrw.commons/

You have to categorize images, but I do not mind that.

There are some limits to what you should upload to commons, e.g., many
nearly identical images.

If the photo has location metadata then from the commons website you
can open it on the OpenStreetmap website so that you can e.g., create a
POI in josm or id. That part is not the most elegant, but it works.

Is there an imagery host that offers an OSM-friendly way to support mapping and 
is suitable for contributions using a smartphone or tablet?

I just got spam from mapilio, implying that I was a "Mapilio
contributor".  This was, to my memory, the first I had heard of them.


I have avoided most street-level imagery schemes as not being
structurally similar to OSM (open source tooling, community project and
licensing scheme).

Looking briefly, it seems like a corporate thing with proprietary
tooling.  They talk about an app in proprietary app stores but do not
mention F-Droid :-) The point seems to be to monetize crowdsourced
contributions, in a gamified/rewards-ish sort of way.

I don't find a JOSM plugin that makes the imagery available in the way
that their web page implies it is licensed for OSM.

Thus, my approach will be to not deal with them at all and just block
their mail.


I am curious if anyone
  - thinks my assessment of the fundamentals is off
  - thinks there is a reasonable way to use their imagery in JOSM
  - anything else similar

  - has also been spammed (private replies please and I'll post a
followup if I get a bunch of comments)

I'm not answering directly to your post, but I think you may like my 
answer ;)



I'm currently working on the Panoramax project, co-originated by 
OpenStreetMap France and IGN (Institut Géographique National).


In the very near future, we should have a street-level imagery offer 
that matches:


- open source tooling

- community project

- (real) open licensing scheme

as well as...

- decrentralized / federated solution... to avoid having one more time a 
single point of failure with an actor hosting all the pictures !


We have not communicated much so far except in France on 
https://panoramax.fr/ as we're still working on the MVP.

Re: [OSM-talk-fr] fichier ajouté sur wiki josm par jenluk

L'utilisateur jenluk a ajouté au wiki de josm un fichier qui ne semble
pas avoir de lien avec le wiki

Ah oui, en effet, sans parler de vandalisme (c'est un fichier GPX), ça
ne rime pas à grand chose de placer ce fichier là.

Sébastien


C'est parce que le fichier avait l'air correct, que je ne voulais pas le 
traiter comme du vandalisme et pouvoir contacter jenluk (mais je ne sais 
pas comment le joindre) avant de faire enlever le fichier.
