photomap

About

The aim of this project is to provide a way for users to view / manage their photos and albums on a map. I decided to create it while traveling in my home country (Romania).
The project development started using Django but has been recently ported to Tornado.

Functions (check screenshots below)

show all geo-tagged photos from the database on the map
manually tag photos (drag the un-tagged photos on the map to update the location)
support for albums, cameras and tags (to be completed)
helper scripts: multicore import script (for bulk uploading), various "fixing" scripts
position auto-detection algorithms (based on timestamp, uploaded tracks etc.) - to be added
stats page - to be completed

Demo

I will try to get a running version of this software on my home Raspberry PI.
You can view some screenshots of the development version running on my laptop here.
