   Excellent app, I have always had amazing photos to upload taken from different amazing parts of the world only to be stopped by the complexity of the old procedure. Well done.

   Can’t wait for the Android app!

   Thanks Fernado, excellent app!

   Looks neat. Do this images show up on Google Maps immediately with the Panoramio collection?

   Also, is the geoposition data taken from the photo itself (if it is in the camera roll) or does it get set from where you are when uploading?

   I guess I will just give it a test to find out.

   It’s pity I cannot see Panoramios pictures only uploading.

7. 7 Craig on Oct 21st, 2009 said:

   Really looking forward to trying this, I’ll just have to wait until I can get a good photo on my iPhone. I hope this doesn’t increase the work load on the reviewers or degrade the quality of the pictures that make it through to GE.

   Do you now have an API for uploading photos? When your iPhone-app announcement went up, I got a flood of mail from your users telling me about it, suggesting that I should finally (after all these years) be able to write a plugin for Adobe Lightroom so that Lightroom users can export their photos to their Panoramio accounts.

   When I asked Panoramio about an API a long time ago, your response was somewhat baffling, implying that you had never heard of someone geoencoding their own photos. Maybe your view has expanded since?

   I would think that Lightroom’s demographics (professional photographers, and serious non-pros) and their much-higher-than-average-quality photographs would be something Panoramio would want to court.

   If you open up an API, I will write a plugin for Lightroom that uses it.

   Excellent application! Excellent start! Definitely there are some features to add! And I am sure - you already working on those: tags (new and existing), browsing existing photos from Panoramio account, show nearby pictures based on current iPhone location, bookmarked users/places, etc…
   Also, it looks like your API is already in place and working nice - please, share API with community (particularly with Jeffrey Friedl (http://regex.info/blog/lightroom-goodies)) and he will write Lightroom plugin for Panoramio uploading!

   Thanks a lot, Panoramio team! Best of luck!
   Looking forward to seeing your updates!

    Genial trabajo !, ya lo estabamos esperando, a ver como afecta a la subida de fotos, seguro que los usuarios tendran mucha más facilidad para geoposicionar las fotos… más fácil imposible.

    Good job!

    Saludos,

    Next challenge…. uploading photographs straight from my EOS 400D??

12. 12 Don Tucker on Oct 22nd, 2009 said:

    I second the call for an Android version.

13. 13 Дмитрий Семёнов on Oct 22nd, 2009 said:

    Why free applications is available only for some contries? No Aplications in Europe. No App inRussian Store. No App in Estonian Store.
    Russian Tourist is very perspective in future. And dont forget what one from Google owners is russian too. I think this is iTunes. And Apple development cours. The reason is Copyright problems.

14. 14 Mike on Oct 22nd, 2009 said:

    Finally the app I was waiting for. But why it’s not able to use GPS coordinates from pictures taken outside the Panoramio app? They have GPS tags.

    Very precarious and complicated check the photos of the competition. Before it was much easier.

16. 16 Draken on Oct 24th, 2009 said:

    Don’t you see the contradiction?

    http://www.panoramio.com/help/adding_photos

    “Panoramio doesn’t support batch uploads. Each photo must be individually uploaded to ensure the best quality and geolocation accuracy.”

    With this app. the best quality will never be achieved. Sad, very sad indeed.

    Panoramio will rapidly become a poor quality photos dump.

    Please a version for Windows Mobile!!!!

18. 18 moriza on Oct 25th, 2009 said:

    I upoaded two photos with the iPhone apps. I am sure the photos has geotags since it was taken on my iPhone (and it shows on Picasa), but the Panoramio app. did not place them on the map automatically. I had to do it manually on the web. Did I miss something?
    We’ll try a couple more pictures.

    ON my recent visit to sicily I took a photograph of a lilac/bluish plan situated next to poppies, I though it was a cornflower …. I can see the same flower in one of your photos and going on google I also noticed it lives in sicily.
    I would appreciated if you could mail me its name. thanks for your help regards fiorililla

20. 20 AustinMN on Oct 26th, 2009 said:

    I think this is a sad thing for Panoramio. I have never seen any camera - even the best DSLR - that had a screen that was adequate to evaluate the photos for upload. Now here is a mechanism for uploading from an inferior camera with no way to evaluate the worth of the image before doing so. So sad.

21. 21 Henk on Oct 26th, 2009 said:

    This is all fantastic, but why don’t you repair the old upload interface? I’ve uploaded a lot of images, but you guys lost them during the upload process (the only thing that remains after uploading is an corrupt internet page with white thumbnails).

    Don’t fix it when it’s not broken!

22. 22 Matthew Walters on Oct 26th, 2009 said:

    I take thousands of photos on a two-week trip, then spend days editing them to ensure only the best are put forwards for Panoramio and hence google earth. I crop, level, sharpen, stitch and adjust until I am happy. What a waste of time.

23. 23 Joe W on Oct 27th, 2009 said:

    Wow. There are already way too many lousy quality photos on Panoramio! I can only expect this app to bring the quality of Panoramio even further down. Too bad - RIP, Panoramio.

24. 24 Muzza from McCrae on Oct 28th, 2009 said:

    I have almost 6 pages of photos waiting to be assessed. Oldest being uploaded during September. Are photos still being assessed and loaded onto Google Earth?

    Great application! Was waiting for it for a long time! Thank you!

28. 28 Peter on Oct 28th, 2009 said:

    you better get your work done… since 2 month no new photos are updated so why uploading to a site thats abadoned by its developers….

29. 29 Adel on Oct 29th, 2009 said:

    I agree with the other comments, it is dissapointing that Panoramio had put a lot of effort to serve an inferior camera and fast track publishing the phone cameras, and we spend days croping and selecting great shots to publish, and we wait months to see them in google earth.

30. 30 Mauro & Ornella in India on Oct 29th, 2009 said:

    We took thousands of shots during our honeymoon travel and just a few of them where worth the publishing on Panoramio, some of them that looked good on the small monitor of the camera where blurred or out of focus when we viewed them on our PC. So we think it is wrong to allow picture uploading from cellphones that have bad lenses, small monitors and no way to evaluate on an informed basis the REAL quality of a picture.

31. 31 Faintlightofdawn on Oct 29th, 2009 said:

    What an innovative idea!

    I have an iPhone and the camera is hopeless, so hopefully these uploads will not feature prominently on the world map.

33. 33 skida on Oct 31st, 2009 said:

    This is a worrying development indeed. There are so many things not right with Panoramio, yet instead of getting the basics right, the team seem to have been working on this feature which will open the floodgates - not good when you have difficulty just treading water.

34. 34 《阿鵬》B@ngk☺k on Oct 31st, 2009 said:

    I can’t agree more with AustinMN and Matthew Walters. Although I am not a good photographer, I always try to present to my friends select photos with the best composition and quality I can do. A lot of energy and time was spent. I DO NOT like SUPERFICIAL job!

35. 35 JRS on Nov 1st, 2009 said:

    Thanks for this application: it gives me another way to upload photos to Panoramio. I don’t think AustinMN or Matthew Walters get it: you can still use the existing mechanisms, but here is a way to upload iPhone photos directly. You can always delete them if you don’t like them later! Thanks again, Fernando.

36. 36 Claudio Pedrazzi on Nov 2nd, 2009 said:

    I am not so sure this is a good development. The team could be literally flooded with low quality photographs, and the review process could be dramatically slowed down. In my humble opinion there could have been more useful issues to work on… but anyway let’s wait and see what the brave new world of iphotos will bring to Panoramio.

    Hi, please help,

    Sorry that I put this kind of info in this topic, but I have to react quickly and have no time to find admin’s e-mail. One of users called EDWIN FICK is spreading some spam which apparently, is a trojan, as it was reported by some other user - coud someone make an order with this idiot - is it possible?

    Please be careful! Examples of comments of that miserable person below:

    I love Panoramio and I hate this kind of behaviour….

    IT is really nice thing that with help of this we can download over photo on over i-phone.Thank you for this post it has very useful information.This article contain some meaningful information.please keep posting like this with this useful information

43. 43 James Gregor on Nov 15th, 2009 said:

    I love this app! What a great way to get the most worldwide photo coverage. Yeah really great photos are….well, great, but I mostly use the panoramio app in google earth to find interesting locations to visit. so the more people uploading lots of pics, the more old ruins, abandoned cemeteries, waterfalls, and awesome overlooks I can visit!
    Great job!

44. 44 Kelly on Nov 26th, 2009 said:

    I think it’s fascinating that people think that it’s a waste of time to do something carefully simply because someone else may do the same thing differently. This is a great development - I’ve happily contributed using my iPhone and enjoy the process very much. In the future, once a significant database of photos develops, there’s no reason why fresh mechanisms for parsing qualitatively cannot be developed.

    Esperando que pronto se haga realidad también para móviles con S.O. Symbian.

    Soy un usuario que gusta de Panoramio, de niño siempre quería como una mezcla de mi mapa de viaje con un album fotográfico personal, así que ojalá pronto pueda utilizar en algún viaje para llevar mis recuerdos a Panoramio con mi Nokia 5800.

    Saludos desde Antofagasta de Chile.
