This might be true for video, but if we are talking about photos this seems useless to me. Usually I take a photo at every point where I want to map something, so there are very few photos from a mapping survey that are useless. I doubt you will see many street signs with road names on occasional video recordings (unless you do it like Google in 360 degrees and with sufficent resolution). Apart from that street names and road signs are by far not the only information you will usually record on a mapping survey, and most of the work is drawing and tagging what you want to map rather than finding pictures which contain relevant information. This might be different for video, I agree. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
