Staryon,

I've used requests.php to build a geotag request to accept remote Web lookups for the Geotagging script I've been writing. Works well, and basically just copied and refactored what was already in requests.php. Said another way, I don't know PHP well, but I can copy and paste to make what I want.

My section drops right into requests.php, but I've also during testing made a separate geotag.php so I have either option. Which would you feel more comfortable accepting into the TrackMe server code?

This is assuming you're comfortable with the whole idea that users can utilize your TrackMe server/database to look up their datapoints for geotagging images. The API is simple, so people could always write their own tagging script and use the same server code. For example, Windows users might want to write something in .Net which has a GUI. Me, I'll stick to Perl.

Let me know, I'll PM you the URL to check it out.

I have a feature request for the viewer. Would it be possible to add a drop-down menu on the right side (along with "trip" and "filter") and have it list the various kinds of google icons that one can select when forcing an update? For example, I was out scouting some photo locations today and marked a few spots (with the forced update, using the Google "camera" icon) that I would like to revisit when I have a little more time. I had another spot that I thought would make a good bike ride, so I marked it with the "bike" icon. I'm uploading my data to my own server using the "Official release." I was thinking that when I got back to my computer, I could view my page and filter by points denoted as "camera" or "bike," but then realized that option wasn't available. I've done a little php / sql wrangling, and I think I could figure out how to do it, but before I dive into the code head-first, I thought I'd bring it up here in case it's something that could be added to the official version.

It would be nice if that could be added in addition to the other filters, i.e. view the points marked with "camera" only on a certain trip or within a certain date range, etc.

And it may be even better to present all the Google icon options as checkboxes, rather than a drop-down menu. That way, the user could have it show as many or as few of the categories as they want. Kind of like layers in Google Earth.

Thank you for the software / viewer, they're awesome!

Okay, very odd, I *can* do it on your server. Is there something server side which is needed?

Hi

My ASP upload (posted earlier) is working good, this is only handling "upload"
I now want to go on with uploading images.
If i do that I see that I receive a
"findclosestpositionbytime" and that I need to to return two fields like ID and dateocccured in asp that is for example this:

Response.write("Result:0|1284|2009-02-27 13:49:13")

I still get a "Uable to get postions" on my cellphone
Can somebody tell me how this flow goes before the uploading of the selected image file is done.

I see there is also "updateimageurl" but I dont know either how to trigger this from my cellphone.
I searched the forum as good as I could but did not find this info
hopefully you can help me

regards Pieter

Can you post the piece off code where the error "Error uploading picture" is generated? The sreens say's first Uploading picture..... and then I get the error.
Perhaps its not possible to upload to an ASP webserver, or is it just HTTP and all should work? Hope you can help me further, im stuck right now
