(just got used to how to use the iPad/Apple Pencil to markup images, pleasantly surprised with how much iOS can do these days).. here are a few urban label suggestions from recent images ...

That looks really cool, thanks for sharing!

I agree with you: that looks like a really cool way to manage a large number of labels. (and it gives you nice visual feedback of what's already covered with labels+annotations)

I'll get back to the list when the next batch of labels will be unlocked :)

Right I see some good progress in the label list scrolling through.. it’s helping classify the images “cityscape” is a great label to have, but plain “city” and “town” would help: in my head cityscape usually means an elevated view, being able to see the city as a landscape. “Street” is another request, but you would probably have to qualify it as it is possible to have a street in the countryside (city street, backstreet,highstreet, possibly residential street or residential area, suburb.. suburban street, village street ( countryside = rural street; google will indeed show examples for that.)..

there’s a sliding scale between sparse villages, streets that lead into farms, and towns, and cities. Good example of how the same elements in different proportions will get a different designation.

I’ve got the word “urban” in there too (opposite to countryside and landscape)

Wikipedia: “a cityscape is an artistic representation.. of an urban area.. urban equivalent of landscape” .. that sort of correlates with my perception about it being ‘arty’,’staged’, rather than a simple everyday ground level photo. If you google cityscape it’s all elevated views or views across rivers

I guess plain “street” is useful and probably does always mean road plus buildings, even in the case of rural and villages (if you don’t want to have all 5 or so variations just yet)
