The desktop Mapillary Uploader shows the sequences on a map but if uploading multiple files and encountering any issues, I think it’s not much use. If a line looks wrong due to GPS issues, there’s no way to identify which video the line is for. And if you were able to discover which video had bad GPS data, there’s no way to remove just 1 video from the list. You have to discard everything and start over, including going through the sometimes quite lengthy processing step.

Thanks for the feedback! We’ll be adding the option to remove individual images and videos before upload in the next release.

@nikola - this will also be addressed, right?

Sure, we can also look into that. Right now, the dots on the map represent the start of the video and clicking on them will show the name of the video file along with some useful options.

I hadn’t realized this. This helps but it is still challenging in instances where multiple teams had the same starting point and/or might have intertwining tracks. I think it would be more useful… if it was possible to click the track (not just the starting point); and/or, if instead of a modal that covers the map, the selected track and filename in the side list were highlighted.

A new version of the uploader is now out: Mapillary Desktop Uploader 4.6.0 is out now and we we’ve added the option to click on a video line on the map in order to select a video for inspection.
@nikola I sometimes use a mix of sequences, some individual panos and some video files.
I used 4.5.0 for the first time with an individual pano sequence and it’s great to be able to manually move the pano locations if required. However, I have often observed that the base map isn’t always drawn accurately with regards to the position of roads and paths on the map.

It would be really useful to be able to have a satellite image background option as well as just the base map within Desktop uploader to more accuratley be able to move and place the panos.
-
It would also be really useful to be able to adjust the position of the solid green line for video file uploads.

Not that I have experienced it yet, but it might also be useful to be able to edit the final published pano location after the processing has completed if needed to improve accuracy.
Thank you for those feature suggestions @JG360 ! We will keep them in mind for our backlog.
