Contributor Components

Components that allow a contributor to add data to the system through an upload form. The data is added to the HOTOSM imagery bucket. Contributors with a large amount of imagery should consider setting up their own imagery bucket within the OIN network.

OAM Uploader API

The OAM Uploader API is built using two sub-components. The worker processes uploaded imagery and pushes to an imagery bucket.

Worker subcomponent

Written in NodeJS

  • Processes the jobs from the database. This is an asynchronous process that happens periodically.
  • Generates final TIF images and metadata (following the Open Imagery Network specification) and uploads them to the HOTOSM OIN imagery bucket.
