[Feature Request] Geotagging

Post by dinnable »

Hi Developers

I'm using the Phoca Gallery since months and I find it great that you integrated geotagging in the gallery.

It will be great to implement some new feauters for the geotagging function.

1. Add geotagging information for each picture
2. Add in the Front-End a Map that all the pictures can be displayed.
3. The Popup in the Map shows now the name of the picture. Is it possibile to add a thumb and a link to the original picture.

Hi,

1. I am thinking about it ...
2. I am thinking about it - but in area "category". So e.g. the new view will be created, a map, where will be the categores as markers displayed ... it can be next displaying option for categories view
3. It is very problematic and not logic (not logic in phoca gallery structure and behaviour). You see the medium thumbnail and if you click on geotagging image, you will see the medium thumbnail again? The thumbnail is displayed in category view, the large thumbnail is displayed in detail view. The problematic side of this problem is switching windows (from medium thumbnail to large thumbnail - should we go from modal box to modal box, what if user does't use modal box, but standard javascript window, ... there are more problems ... so maybe only displaying medium image or small image without link can be the solution, maybe displaying the small image, image name and image description, ... ???

the 3. point is based on the 2.

It will be great only to show the google map in the front end without the pictures and from the google map by clicking on the marker to show the thumb and the link
