Working on https://openplacereviews.org/, hopefully will be soon in nightlies |
Interesting to hear (although I am not looking after any sort of rating).

Ok, this anwers question 2.
However more important (as you did not comment on question 1)
I just want to understand and get some more transparency. |
https://forum.openplacereviews.org/ the project is only starting, so all discussions will be there I think. Later on some other tools will arise around it. |
Sorry, maybe did not express it well.

Hi @vshcherb thanks for your reply.
Thank you |
This request is still open and it is worth to discuss. We don't have public roadmap and select features based General Vision / User requests. I'm a product leader but the contributing team is much larger you can find it by Github commits. I think I will be the main public person to comment on OsmAnd plans |
What makes wikimedia commons too limited? |
Hi @vshcherb Thanks for commenting on 1, 2, 3
Could you imagine maintaining a page with current / future roadmap for OsmAnd? As an osm contributer I am mainly concerned about 4) - please help me with that. Regarding 5 and 6 I understand discussion should go on here. So please comment on 5 and let me know what is needed to discuss 6 |

@swedneck @NotSoImportant : Wikimedia Commons is limited because photos must fall in their scope: for "educational purposes". See https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Project_scope#Not_used In other words, lets say: If the subject of that photo doesn't have a Wikipedia page, forget uploading that to Commons. Of course is not really like this (many things in Commons don't have a Wikipedia page and are not even used in any page by various reasons), but is a good guidance. So, if I take a photo of a little shop, that is out of scope and will be deleted, because that little shop is not notable, not known by everyone, except a few people near it. And that little shop will never have a page about it, unless it becomes really special and appears in many newspapers, at least. So most photos taken by OsmAnd users would be deleted, like restaurants and shops (could be considered also SPAM in Commons, to promote private businesses). The only ones suitable would be tourist attractions (generally monuments). That's why openplacereviews.org is more suitable for photos taken in OsmAnd. May be photos of meals too (seems a good idea to Wikipedia pages!) but not business facades or indoors. Considering this, OsmAnd could still have that option with a warning "just upload educational (tourists attractions, monuments, museums, plants, animals, meals...) or your images will be deleted". But, at least to me, it seems a bit unnecessary because Wikimedia Commons have an app just to do that, with many features like help choosing licenses, categories, etc. That's a lot of unnecessary work to OsmAnd developers since we have a good alternative and they should invest in other priorities. |
@laralem I'm not sure how you're reaching this conclusion, from what i can read using wikimedia commons for example photos of locations is perfectly valid, and https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Commons notes that even something like a photo of bicycle parking is within the wikimedia commons scope. Of course, the most conclusive answer would be to just ask wikimedia commons directly whether OsmAnd is within the scope. |
"they" think collaboration is good ;-) |
It doesn't seem that you have much experience in contributing to Wikimedia Commons. I have and can assure you that the scope of the project is much wider than that of Wikipedia. The only images that might get deleted are copyright violations, personal photos (of your family, for example) and blatant advertising (not meaning photos of the exterior of a shop). |
Our user asks to improve the audio / video plugin so that it is possible to add photos with GPS tags. |
@zipav is your user having e.g. if the name of the file is |
There are a lot of OsmAnd users who for a selected position (My Places/Favorites) |

Hello, I think mediawiki is perfect to save poi images and they can be used in Wikipedia, wikidata and a lots of other project too. And this seems doable faster and easier than opr. So I would love to have an option in osmand that allow to upload a photo to mediawiki o/ |
🚀 feature request
Description
Have a seamless flow from taking / selecting a photo to uploading it with having the data added to OSM and photo being displayed in OsmAnd again.
Reasoning
Right now there is following options in OsmAnd to deal with photos:
- at point
As seen above besides Mapillary (not sure how/if it really works without gaps) there is no easy way to have a complete roundtrip.
Use cases
a. any: Take picture with camera / OsmAnd audio/video notes plugin / Wikimedia Commons app
b. (any: share with the WC app)
c. WC: fill WC data and upload
d. (browser: if not part of the image: check OsmAnd for gps location and add as metadata)
e. WC/Browser: copy or remember name
f. OsmAnd: edit poi, add WC name, upload
a. any: Take picture with camera / OsmAnd audio/video notes plugin / StreetComplete / other app
b. (any: Upload to a share hoster)
c. OsmAnd: add note with the link
