Fix the location forms #3

Open katemoser opened 3 months ago

katemoser commented 3 months ago

Right now when you upload a photo, if there is exif data for location you can't go back and change it. However, I want to be able to have the option to go ahead and change the location if there was some sort of mistake/ it's not precise enough

Want to leverage neighborhoods instead!
Allow user to go back and change the location.
Ensure that original, extrememly precise coords are not being stored anywhere; rather, do something along the lines of airbnb where you get a "general" location for the photo

Hey, I wanted to give this a try. Do you mind?

About the location, you could store the original location and generate a new location within a radius, say 5 km (3 miles).

Also, maybe you can add the input to tweak the location right after the image is uploaded, under an Advanced or Tweaks title, maybe even hidden by default. I don't exactly know the priority in the UX for this feature.

I'd need access to the API or at least a mock. 😃

Hi @tzivigelstein!

You are welcome to take a stab if you would like! To be honest I just like to create issues as a way to stay organized for myself, so I don't exactly have things set up for other contributors right now -- I don't have full instructions for dev setup or anything.

This interfaces with an API i'm working on in tandem (it's in the repo called flask-postcardium), but getting that up and running on your end will be a pain since it would require you to set up an AWS s3 bucket/ permissions.

All that to say, feel free to mess around with this but it's not set up for ease-of-contribution now.
