In Wikidocumentaries all openly licensed images can be geotagged. This is not available for images, whose reuse is restricted.
There will be an internal geotagging app, and the images can be rephotographed and geotagged with the Ajapaik mobile app.
Development is based on the work done in the Ajapaik.ee project of the Estonian Photographic Heritage Society as well as the Surveyor project for New York Public Library Labs.
Workflow for geotagging
Images are viewed in the topic page images module or an image viewer. Images may also be present in articles.
Access to geotagging is available with each image in the images module and the image viewer.
The geotagging interface includes a split view of the zoomable image and the zoomable map. The user places the camera, the target and the camera angle on the map. Geocoding may be used to help find the location.
The image metadata is saved locally, added with the geotagging data.
The user contributions will accumulate, and methods of verifying best locations may be developed.
The image metadata will either be imported to Wikimedia Commons.
