SPYOSCAPE

SPYOSCAPE (spyoscape.dk) is a (work in progress) hobby project that aims to localise and map the artwork of the Danish graffiti artist SPYO. The artwork included on this site contains only political statements, phrases or alike. This means that regular tags and throwups etc. are not mapped.

How do you know it actually is SPYO?
I don't. I make an educated guess based on context, painting style and letter formatting.

Am I missing something?
You are very welcome to create a pull request with images of artwork I have not yet mapped. The process for doing so is described at the contribution section section. Thank you for stopping by!

Contribution

To add your submission to the project, follow the following procedure.

1. Add your image to static/images/. Please prioritise landscape oriented photos. - The naming of the image should be the quote in lower case with dashes instead of spaces. If the quote is long, it can be truncated with three dots. E.g. very-long-quote-must....jpg - Do you best to exclude the faces of bypassers when taking the photo.
2. run the enroll.py script with your image as the only argument and enter the data prompted for.

For example:

(venv) user@host:~/spyoscape$ python enroll.py static/images/the-beauty-of-ethnicity.jpg 
Enter the quote: THE BEAUtY OF EtHNiCitY
Enter comma-separated author names (default: SPYO): 
No GPS data found in the image.
Enter coordinates in format: lat, lng (e.g., 55.123123, 12.123123): 55.708228,12.548157
Image resized to 1920px wide and EXIF removed: static/images/the-beauty-of-ethnicity.jpg
Inserted new quote and updated static/js/data.json.

1. Add your image to static/images/. Please prioritise landscape oriented photos. - The naming of the image should be the quote in lower case with dashes instead of spaces. If the quote is long, it can be truncated with three dots. E.g. very-long-quote-must....jpg - Do you best to exclude the faces of bypassers when taking the photo.
2. Enter the data for the new image in static/js/data.json. - The list is alphabetically sorted, so find the suitable place. - The primary key is should be the full quote, following the capitalisation of the artwork. - lat/lng
   • The lat/lng should be reflecting the position from where the image was taken. You may use generate-image-entry.py to generate the boilerplate JSON and extract the lat/lng from the image (please verify them). The usage is python generate-image-entry.py static/images/<image>.jpg and the script requires the python exif package. If GPS information is not included in the exif data, you can enter the coordinates manually.
   • authors
   • The author key is a list of authors. It must at least contain SPYO.
   • image
   • The image key is a path to the image. Should be static/images/.jpg
3. Run make image IMG=<path to image> to resize the image to a width of 1920 pixels and remove the exif data. make image requires the imagemagick and libimage-exiftool-perl (exiftool) packages.
