Right…I’m already doing that (between trying to actually safely drop M off and not openly encouraging the parents to hate me, the Cycliq cameras are an easier way to go) – so then to have to fill out the form with location info./plates/etc. for the 3 or 4 photos per day at the same location is just too much. And since they’re screen grabs from the video, trying to pull info. out the metadata will not help.

But I fully admit that my scenario is probably not the normal use case they envisioned in setting up the collection instrument.

Just need to get the kiddo a cell phone and make her responsible for the bike lane uprising tasks.

That’s a good fallback plan, though she’d probably just watch videos the whole time like she did on Hains Point the last night of Freezing Saddles. First, though – I went ahead and e-mailed them with a few thoughts for them to consider that could help more than just me (allow a user to save frequently reported locations so I could pick from a drop-down of favorites instead of re-entering each time; let us provide the link to a tweet rather than uploading images separately; work with someone who noted he is developing a tool that would read the plate info. from a picture to avoid that bit of data entry).
