I was wondering if there are any plans to implement
autotagging of
location/coordinates when uploading using the upload wizard.
For example: When you punch in the monument ID it could fill in coordinates
and possibly some extra information using information gathered by the bot.
That's an interesting proposal and if it is not possible to do it
right now, it should be possible to add that feature to the Upload
Wizard, but there's a catch: what are the coordinates of this
photo?[0] Do you want to know the coordinates of the photographer or
the coordinates of the monument? I'd prefer to preserve the
coordinates of the photographer - I can even visualize how we could
use that to generate a map of nice spots to take pictures from a
monument. One way to do this is to let geo-tagged photos to override
the auto-filled setting, which is a bit more complicated.
