Wiki Map

Wiki Map is a community mapping platform allowing users to share photos, automatically extract location data, and explore places through an interactive map interface.

Product policy summary

Wiki Map is a platform focused on sharing geotagged photos. The public policy set below helps users understand how we handle EXIF data from images, location privacy, community-contributed content, and personal data controls.

What Wiki Map Does

Wiki Map extracts EXIF data (including GPS coordinates) from user-uploaded photos, placing markers on a community map. The system supports marker clustering and heatmaps to visualize location density.

Audience

Wiki Map is intended for location-sharing enthusiasts, photographers, and explorers. Users are responsible for not uploading sensitive private locations that violate others' privacy.

Policy Scope

The policy covers image metadata (EXIF) processing, public map visibility, photo storage, user responsibilities, and procedures for removing sensitive content.

Wiki Map policy map

  • Privacy Policy: explains coordinate extraction from photos, image storage, data access, and deletion.
  • Terms of Use: explains photo ownership, avoiding invasion of private spaces, and community guidelines.
  • Data Deletion: guides how to retract shared images or completely delete accounts.
  • Support Contact: routes copyright reports, inappropriate content, or requests to remove sensitive map locations.

Store assessment information

  • Wiki Map requests Photo Library access so users can upload content with attached metadata.
  • Displayed locations are extracted from EXIF data (if not disabled by the user at capture time), without persistent background GPS tracking.
  • Data Safety forms must reflect the collection of Photos and Location (approximate or precise based on metadata).
  • A Report feature allows the community to flag images containing sensitive content or incorrect locations.
