[feature request] Images on map #24

First of all, thanks you very much for this great plugin!!

I have seen some plugins for wordpress that can display images of a given post on a map in the same post automagically. Is there a chance something like that could be implemented for trackserver as well? The location of the image could be taken from the image's geolocation or (if not available) be interpolated from the timestamp and the track(s) displayed in the map.

Thank you very much for considering.

Hi,

This is something I have on the roadmap, in the form of waypoints, that could have images or other types of data attached.

Do you have any ideas about how it should work? For example, integration with photo albums (if so, which one(s)?) or other ways to specify what images to load?

I don't think doing the interpolation thing is feasable in Trackserver, at least not anytime soon. It would likely have to be done in the browser, and the tracks don't have timestamps in the browser. I'll think about it, but you better tag your images up front. I wrote something for that a long time ago: https://github.com/tinuzz/taggert ;-) Not sure if it still works, it's in Python2.

Best regards, Martijn.
