This content type module contains fields for title, body, local images and location. Primary purpose for developing this was to create a way to find images around some interesting point or area. Initial idea was to plan first a trip around, say France, and insert several POIs around the country. Then it is convenient to visit these places before the actual trip, and try to get to know the places better.
Images come from two sources (at this point) , Panoramio and Flickr. User can also upload her own local photos. Needs two additional modules to be present, gmap and location.
Setup is simple, at admin/config/poi/settings Flickr API key must be filled, other settings can be left to their defaults. Gmap module uses Google Maps v.2 so API key needs to be filled at admin/config/services/gmap. Also remember to enable "Use a Google Map to set latitude and longitude" at admin/config/content/location.
Usage: add new content, Point of interest, fill in data and zoom in and find it on map, save. Then viewing it, Google map with Panoramio layer and Street view should be visible. Click somewhere on the map, and if any pics within map window box coordinates are available at Flickr, some thumbnails should pop up on the map and the same images a bit larger in size should appear in a row on top. Streetview paths and pictures can be toggled on or off.
