Hi Phil
My old 1280x720 was setup for a rear quarter view for traffic sign
capture. I was advised that the angle and shutter raster delay (slant)
made detection problematic so I don't upload. I will however give it a
try at 90 degrees. It's a USB webcam

Nice work bob3bob3,
I wish I could spend that much time on the road. I also prefer the
backroads rather than main drags and shoot with a GoPro at 0.5 second
intervals. I also have Garmin Virbs which I have used for Mapillary.
One thing that is useful in small towns is a cruise around the main
and back streets with a camera at 90 degrees (I shoot over the road
from the drivers side) to capture shop fronts etc. This can be useful
for business points - the local butcher, hardware shop, addresses etc.
I tend to map randomly in OSM. Sometimes its mapping towns facing
natural disasters (ie fires, floods, cyclones etc) and at other times
just areas of interest - Outback stations I find on satellite imagery
or obscure routes I have travelled in the past. Having Mapillary
images helps immensely in these obscure places. It’s a way to pick up
station names, road names and especially road surfaces.
Keep up the good word
Phil (aka tastrax)
