I agree the quality of the images are very poor. Why go through all that effort of data collection with such inferior hardware? Most of the images are completely unusable.
- Polylactic_acid 6y agoI wouldn't all them completely unusable, they are just vastly inferior to googles. Personally I captured a bunch of images. If I was going somewhere already and the area was uncaptured I would just stick my phone up and capture the road. Then I would later go over the images and add things in to open street map.

- windthrown 6y ago"Unusable" for human eyes, or unusable for computers? The images do not need to be very pretty for a computer to extract street signs and other features.
- Doctor_Fegg 6y agoI’d rather have Mapillary’s imperfect images of a trail than Google’s blank images because they haven’t driven a Street View car down there.
