Geovation photos

Many people in our Geovation Hub are asking for a simple tool to upload images into a map. It must be free, and easy to extend and white label. It also must work as mobile app as well as web app. An example of this is Plastic Patrol. They needed an app to capture plastic pollution around UK. The idea of Geovation Photos is to be a skeleton for those types of apps.
