I’ve found that I still record a lot of data while hiking. Trail surfaces, POIs, you name it. However I find less and less time to turn these datasets into actual map data. I can’t be the only one that this happens to. Is there some kind of service that connects people that collect data and armchair mappers?
All common OSM compatible street level imagery services allow you to upload photos manually. Kartaview uploader can even add GPS data to the images from a GPX file, so if you use a camera without GPS it can still place them to the correct location if you recorded your trip with a different device:
- Mapilllary: https://www.mapillary.com/desktop-uploader This is the most user friendly, but unfortunately owned by Facebook/Meta
- Kartaview CLI uploader: https://github.com/kartaview/upload-scripts
- Mapilio’s uploader was removed temporarily for some reason: https://mapilio.com/uploader
- Panoramax has a web uploader and a CLI tool: https://panoramax.openstreetmap.fr/pourquoi-contribuer

On mapillary I have seen imagery like this a lot of times, so I think it should be ok.
I already found a similar manual survey on panoramax here: https://panoramax.ign.fr/#background=streets&focus=map&map=18.08/48.859874/2.347155&pic=569af393-05b8-4711-928f-ccf278afe654&speed=250&theme=type&xyz=336.00/0.00/30
It seems panoramax.openstreetmap.fr instance is down. There are licensing differences between the ign.fr and the openstreetmap.fr instances, and the ign.fr is France only.
The data deposited on the IGN instance are published under the etalab-2.0 license, and those on the OSM France instance under the CC-BY-SA-4.0 license.

This etalab license seems something used by the French Government, but I can’t find a lot of information about it on the internet in English. From this official pdf it seems like something more open than CC.
@the_third Ah, I’m on the other side of the spectrum. Don’t have any time or motivation to go outdoor, but have some freetime for armchair mapping. The thing is, I think one can’t extract every bit of information from captured data, so your best bet would be to upload and share your gpx (OSM) and pictures (Panoramax?). Not sure about the others bits, depends on the format I guess

@the_third Meeeh, still think that @panoramax could be a good place to host them and make them browsable
