Description

Inspired by https://twitter.com/mvexel/status/1532114607120130049

This is a big one and needs quite a bit of thinking and discussion—and work.

To create a 'photo challenge' you would point MapRoulette to an place (online / local?) that contains a set of geotagged images. MapRoulette would create a task from each image. There might be a special widget to display the image inline on the task page, or just on the map like JOSM does.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing challenge-creation flow and task page/map display mentioned in the issue. Clarify the geotagged-image source, how one task is created per image, and whether images appear inline or on the map; the work is done when the agreed design is implemented and its behavior is verified.
