Hi folks, 2009/9/28 Jack Stringer <[email protected]>: > http://code.flickr.com/blog/2009/09/28/thats-maybe-a-bit-too-dorky-even-for-us/
Just a note that http://www.openstreetmap.pl/wp now shows those "osm:" machine tagged pictures from flickr at z >= 15 in addition to wikipedia and other external links. Here is a nice concentration of picture-tagged objects from user SK53: http://www.openstreetmap.pl/wp?lat=51.5225&lon=-0.7235&z=16 Flickr dots are pink, wikipedia blue, all other grey (if you have a better suggestion I'll take it). Mouse over to highlight ways and areas. The page does not use flickr geolocation apis, only the tags. Flickr tags for all flickr-linked features in view come up at the bottom of the page but there are currently too few of them for it to be fun. If a picture happens to have both a osm:node/way/relation= machine tag and a dopplr:eat= or foursquare:venue= tag, then also links to Dopplr and foursquare.com are displayed directly on the map. I think this is a nice example of how Linked Data works because neither osm knows about foursquare.com or foursquare about osm, yet records in two databases manage to be matched.
