Just a comment. I capture gps traces (usually on a garmin handheld) and
also images (normally jpeg) from various cameras including a dashcam and
a Gopro type body worn camera, but also from everyday cameras. I then
use gps-correlate to add the gps exif data to the photographs, so I end
up with a geotagged jpeg images. Whenever I had looked into contributing
such images to the various OSM image repositories, there was no simple
way just to upload them. This seems like a glaring omission. My Nextbase
dashcam produces geotagged mp4 video, and there is no simple way to
upload those. I do realise that the gps information in the mp4 videos is
not standardised, so there may be an excuse for the video. Not to
mention the sheer size of the files.
