I’ve been contributing to Google Maps for a while, specifically, I usually upload pictures of menu’s from restaurants, so future visitors can see them before they decide to eat there! I’m trying to degoogle my life a bit & was wondering if there is a way I could contribute these to OSM?
If the menu is available on a website you can link to it by adding the
website:menu
tag. These will show on Organic Maps for examplehttps://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key%3Awebsite%3Amenu
See for example this bar that Organic Maps shows the link to the Menu:
Mate Bar https://omaps.app/0ysrTcXR-t/Mate_Bar om://0ysrTcXR-t/Mate_Bar
In my experience website menus aren’t incredibly common, perhaps I could upload the photo and link that though.
I’ve added ‘image:menu’ and ‘website:menu’ to https://mapcomplete.org/food . With it, you can now upload an image of the menu with a few clicks.
@pietervdvn: cool, did not know that page. Where is it uploading to?
@redd
The images to imgur are backed up in case they get deleted from imgur for whatever reason btw.
And soon :tm: they’ll be uploaded to an open source image hosting system but I still need to get that online
