Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] [SAC] Flickr FOSS4G and OSGeo photo history deadline Feb 5th
If we could really focus on collecting the images first. We need a volunteer with time, an API key, and some scripting skills.

Looks like there is an API: https://www.flickr.com/services/api/flickr.groups.pools.getPhotos.html Does anyone already have an API key...

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] [SAC] Flickr FOSS4G and OSGeo photo history deadline Feb 5th
See my comments below As covered on discuss a couple months ago, And covered in the board meeting on Monday: Our OSGeo, FOSS4G and FOSS4G-NA photos on flicker may be reduced on Feb 5th as some photos are removed. Since these photos were shared with our groups we do not really know which ones will be removed. Photographers are asked to subscribe with a monthly fee (or have a limit of 1000 photos). It is not really possible for us as a group to do much, which is a shame for the internet as Flickr has a wide range of CC images (since they did a good job of explaining open licenses and making them easily to use.) Q: Can we throw the images on OSGeo next cloud? [Regina Obe] Yes – We have 16terabytes of space (of I think 8 TB is usable if it's in a RAID config of some sort) want me to create a folder for said purpose? I think it's possible to also share subfolders within that and display as gallery. Nextcloud I think uses imagemagick to create thumbs and resized versions automatically. So I'd be interested in testing that out. Last I tried if I thru a bunch of pictures in a folder on nextcloud, the pictures would show in the gallery widget and start out as small and then get larger as you went deeper. It's also possible to attach like an FTP as a folder in nextcloud so we can investigate that too. Q: Should we only copy the CC images? Or should we copy everything and try and reach authors before sharing? [Regina Obe] Is it easy to separate the sets out? I haven't used flickr so don't know. I would think if they are in OSGeo shared gallery regardless of if authors mark them as CC, we could copy to another folder and have the authors sort them out. It's better than losing them. Aside: Many participants missed the CC license step - which is too bad as it is a good “first time” experience at contributing open content. Q: Anyone know of an API we could use to grab our images?[Regina Obe] Have we checked if we can use Flickr's API or are their limits? I've seen some scripts around that pull images using flickr's api Thanks, Regina ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.osgeo.org https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
