| | 1 | == Bulk Photo Uploader == |
| | 2 | We have a request to be able to upload a large number of photos. |
| | 3 | |
| | 4 | Draft: |
| | 5 | * http://haiti.sahanafoundation.org/prod/media/bulk_upload |
| | 6 | |
| | 7 | * {{{controllers/media.py}}} |
| | 8 | * {{{views/media/bulk_upload.html}}} |
| | 9 | |
| | 10 | This work is in 3 stages: |
| | 11 | |
| | 12 | === Phase 1: Photos with Metadata === |
| | 13 | * Get it working so that files actually upload |
| | 14 | * media_image.name from filename= in POST |
| | 15 | * Optional: Simplify the functionality so that it doesn't have any Geo aspects. |
| | 16 | |
| | 17 | === Phase 2: Geotagging === |
| | 18 | * For each photo uploaded: |
| | 19 | * Read the EXIF header in the files |
| | 20 | * Read the timestamp from the EXIF header |
| | 21 | * Create a record in the database with the filename & timestamp |
| | 22 | * If there's a Lat/Lon then include these fields too |
| | 23 | * Read associated GPX track & correlate timestamps to update the records |
| | 24 | * This is done already within [http://josm.openstreetmap.de JOSM], the [http://openstreetmap.org OpenStreetMap] editor. |
| | 25 | * [http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/JOSM/Plugins/AgPifoJ AgPifoJ] is a plugin which extends native functionality |
| | 26 | |
| | 27 | === Phase 3: Java or Flash widget === |
| | 28 | * To allow multi-select of files in the File | Open dialog (Javascript can't do this) |
| | 29 | * e.g. http://www.uploadify.com/ |
| | 30 | * ? UI to preview images in low-res to select which ones to upload |
| | 31 | * Facebook is a good design model to look at - uses Java |
