= Upload Photos =
Follow this workflow:
 * Upload a GPX Track (to uploads/tracks using the gis_track model)
  * @!ToDo consider moving this to gis_layer_gpx (no need for the extra complication of 2 tables)
 * Upload a Folder-full of Photos ( to uploads/images using the doc_image model )
  * Provide a Multi-Select Uploader widget (needs to be Flash or Java since JS can't access filesystem)
   * http://www.uploadify.com/
  * ? UI to preview images in low-res to select which ones to upload
  * Facebook is a good design model to look at - uses Java

 * For each photo uploaded:
  * Read the timestamp from the EXIF header
  * Create a record in the database with the filename & timestamp
  * Read the GPX track to find the lat/lon associated with the timestamp
  * Add the lat/lon to the database record

This is done already within [http://josm.openstreetmap.de JOSM], the [http://openstreetmap.org OpenStreetMap] editor.
 * [http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/JOSM/Plugins/AgPifoJ AgPifoJ] is a plugin which extends native functionality

== Current Status ==
There is code for this already, but it is unfinished (& refers to an old media_metadata table which no longer exists):
 * bulk_upload() in controllers/doc.py
 * views/docs/bulk_upload.html

There is a multiple file uploader widget which currently depends on Ext-2.2.1 (this should be made to work with the main Ext: currently 3.2.1)
 * static/scripts/ext-community-extensions/Ext.ux.UploadDialog.js
