How to blackstamp my head in street-level images?

I just purchased an Insta360 X4 to create street-level images for Mapillary & Panoramax and took my first pictures with it. As much as I love my hair, I don't really want to see it in street pictures.

In other users' images, I often see a black circle or something similar where a head would normally be. Unfortunately, I couldn't find anything quickly: Which image editing tool that can edit 360-degree images can I use to put a black stamp on my head before uploading the images?

A review of #Panoramax

I have to first say that I support the effort of its contribution of #osm but this review is what I experienced after just try #Mapillary and #KartaView

1. Starting right on the capturing, my phone brightness was dim before I recorded any thing and I had to stop that dimming setting.
2. Despite no map view and very minimal, it takes long times to get GPS than the other 2
3. After each ride, my phone is completely bombed by the photos in Gallery
4. (More 👇)

ミラノ市内の Mapillary コンプリートに向けて、撮影機材の見直し。バックアップ機の GoPro Max は帽子の上に取り付けて、人間スタビライザー方式でアナログリアルタイム天頂補正を行うことで GoPro Max の弱点をカバー。デメリットは、街中でこの帽子かぶっているとめっちゃ視線浴びること。

悲報!ミラノに来て10ヶ月目でついに2台のTHETA X がどちらも壊れた。おそらく猛暑の中で酷使したため、排熱間に合わずハードに影響与えてしまった模様。とりあえず、1台はバッテリー外して、外部電源供給のみで、かろうじて動くけれど、GPS測位できなくなったので、Strava でスマホ記録してマッチング処理で凌ぎ中。バックアップ機のGoProMaxで、残り2ヶ月何とかいけるか…

ソフィア中央駅前のショッピングモール寂れっぷりがすごい。土曜の午後とは思えないほどの無人感。むしろ少し東側のバスステーションの方が華やか。

中央駅は街の中心部から少し離れているとはいえ(それでも徒歩20分くらいの距離)、郊外のイオンのようなモールは現代的で買物客も多い。デジャヴ感強め。

国連 UN GSC の地理空間情報チームとUNVT Portable を含めたこれからの国連業務での最先端技術の取り込みについて熱い議論。思いの外、THETA X によるストリートレベル画像の利活用が刺さって嬉しい。

A Comprehensive Framework For Evaluating The Quality Of Street View Imagery

“HIGHLIGHTS
• [They] propose the first comprehensive quality framework for street view imagery.
• Framework comprises 48 quality elements and may be applied to other image datasets.
• [They] implement partial evaluation for data in 9 cities, exposing varying quality.
• The implementation is released open-source and can be applied to other locations.
• [They] provide an overdue definition of street view imagery..."

#Panoramax - das neue #StreetView!

Vor einigen Jahren wurde
#Mapillary an #Meta verkauft. Und auch #Google StreetView möchte vielleicht nicht jeder nutzen.

Mit Panoramax gibt es nun eine
#FOSS Alternative. Sie soll dezentral organisiert werden. Dies ist meines Wissens die erste Instanz:

https://panoramax.openstreetmap.fr

Kleiner Tipp:
Falls man das AdOn
#ClearURLs verwendet, kommt man eventuell über die Animation wegen Blockierung von ETags nicht hinaus. Deshalb nutze ich Panoramax als #Firefox-PWA am Desktop.
