@jeremystretch commented on GitHub (Jan 13, 2020):

I'm rejecting this for several reasons:

  1. The canonical coordinates of a site are typically set to something specific (e.g. the building's front entrance) or they are copied from a mapping service.
  2. Uploading different photos, even those taken in the same vicinity, would alter the coordinates as consumer grade GPS positioning is typically not 100% accurate.
  3. The quality of image metadata can be unreliable.
