It would be nice to be able to disable some functionnalities globaly at admin level.
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When you have lots of photos in your cloud, if you try to activate images display in maps it will take all server + client ressources. This might take a very long time during which nextcloud becomes completely unusable. It's simply like a DoS attack.
Describe the solution you'd like
Let administrators choose which functionalities must be available to users (maybe via groups authorisations ?).
Describe alternatives you've considered
An alternative could be to limit number of images to display.

Research direction
Start by reviewing how image display, tracks, and other map functionalities are exposed to users, along with the existing admin and group-authorisation entry points. Define the administrator controls and their effect on user access, then verify that disabled functionalities no longer consume the described server and client resources.
