feature request: fuzzy search for GPX coordinates

[abr01]

One of my hobbies is photography. I'm recording my sessions using OSMand, so that i can locate most of my images. Would it be possible to have some kind of 'fuzzy' coordinates search in Everything, that would return all images within a certain perimeter? That would be great.

I am not familiar with the requirements, but i guess, that shortening the x/y values would result in some kind of 'fuzziness', enabling the users to get all shots within a range around those coords.

Something like the following?

Code: Select all

longitude:10..12 latitude:42..43.6

It works, halfways. I have to experiment a lot more. At the moment it takes awfully long, like an hour or more. Even when i try to narrow down to the
path and file type, it is still very slow. Another thing, i have yet to find out, seems i have to convert the data from hms to decimal format first.

Using just very short values is quicker, but way too coarse. My usual range is more like within 35x35 kilometers, and ideally i would like to have a resolution of at least 50 meters, to make the function really useful. But thanks for the hint, that's a start already.

PhotoInsight , an image manager, has a feature to select a rectangle on a map, which willl show all photos that match that longitude/latitude range. Don't need it personally, but thought it was rather cool. MAybe it fits your needs.

PhotoInsight even has Everything integrated to handle file searches. It's developer (@jams) is on this forum too.

Thanks, sounds very interesting. Will try that one, too.
