chilehead:I'd love to see the geocaching iphone app support waymarking (or a separate app.)
Ideally this would let you do both:
Visiting
- select "Show nearest waymarks" button
- select a waymark
- select visit
- type in your text
- optionally select "attach a photo"
- select a photo from your library, or take a new one
Creation
- select "Create new waymark" button
- drill down to the category OR select the unassigned/orphan/generic category (orphans being discussed elsewhere)
- enter title and description
- select "attach photos", select photo(s) from library or take new ones
- for coordinates, select "Use coordinates from a picture" and select the picture (since pics are geotagged)
- or select "Use current location"
- or, select "Manually enter coordinates"
- when you return to your desk, if created as an orphan, the waymark can be assigned to a category
- enter parameters
- submit to group for review
I've heard a rumour about something like this in the works, or maybe it was NorthernPenguin saying that he was toying with making something but when he saw something from Groundspeak, he felt he might be too late.
I'd put on my volunteer reviewer hat and ask on that side of the fence, but the only place that I could is dedicated to Geocaching. It would be like asking people in here to make a Geotagging Camera. Still, I see if I can find out anything that I can talk about, and let you know. Do I get an iPhone if I solve this for ya? {kidding}
