I’ve found that I still record a lot of data while hiking. Trail surfaces, POIs, you name it. However I find less and less time to turn these datasets into actual map data. I can’t be the only one that this happens to. Is there some kind of service that connects people that collect data and armchair mappers?
@the_third Ah, I’m on the other side of the spectrum. Don’t have any time or motivation to go outdoor, but have some freetime for armchair mapping. The thing is, I think one can’t extract every bit of information from captured data, so your best bet would be to upload and share your gpx (OSM) and pictures (Panoramax?). Not sure about the others bits, depends on the format I guess
Yep, that’s the right place for the tracks. Not even necessary around here, because we can use excellent public open data for mapping, 20cm/px aerial imagery, digital surface model, stuff like that.
The important part are the images, but I can’t really upload them to any existing image service out there because they are only useful for osm. Some samples. You can see that these would be wrong on any panorama image service, they are really mostly road, a barn, a sign, you name it.
@the_third Meeeh, still think that @panoramax could be a good place to host them and make them browsable

It looks good, I agree. Do you think, detail imagery, like full frame photos of street post signs or something like that would be appropriate as well? Something like this:
