Panorama upload

Update: This post is outdated...

Here is a small tutorial on how to upload a panorama on panoye.

I will use a panorama from Vojak, the summit of Učka for the tutorial. The author is Matija Pužar.

Adding your panorama consist of three steps:
1. Select panorama's location,
2. Upload the image and
3. Orientate the panorama.

When you login on panoye you will see a link 'Upload your panoramas'. The application will ask you for the coordinates of your panorama's location:

If you know the coordinates - just write them. Don't know the exact coordinates(?) - use the map. You can zoom using the '+' and '-' buttons and scroll using the arrow buttons or drag&drop the map.

Zoom and scroll the map untill you are absolutely sure you found the place. Try 'Map', 'Satellite' and 'Hybrid' on the map to be sure on the location. Then just click on the map.

Here is how I found the exact location of Matija's panorama:



I clicked on the location (the peak of mt. Učka) - and that's it ;)

In the second step you must write down the title, description (of the panorama), technical description (camera, lens, tripod...), place tags and description tags (for example: mountain, church, sea, city...). And, of course, select your image (max 1mb).

Now, panoye knows the location, description and title of your panorama. Bit it still don't know where are the four cardinal directions (north, south, east, west) on your panorama. In the third (and last) step you must orientate your panorama:

First find any distinct place on the panorama (by scrolling it left/right). For example, I used the antenna near the top of Vojak:

...and then find that place on the map. In my example the antenna is just below the "Satellite" label on the map:

Click on that point, the application will ask you 'Orientate to the selected point?'. I said OK:

The resulting panorama is here:



Any question/comment/criticism ? ;)
