To clarify: * Outgoing license is CC-BY-SA. "Mapillary Photos are available under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License (CC BY-SA 4.0)." from http://www.mapillary.com/legal.html * OSM has an explicit right to take data under their contributor terms http://www.mapillary.com/osm.html * The incoming license is per Mapillary ToS because we want to be able to use the photos for 3D/street view/recognition/etc

Also we do give attribution to photographers under every single photo.

I would like to archive your photo collection for safe keeping at archive.org in the winter. Would you be up to work together on that or should I just write me some scripts and go at it (with reasonable rate limiting)?

Are original files available or is thumb-2048.jpg the maximum public quality?

Are there really no location tags in the files? If so, your CC license is pretty much worthless as the images itself are not useful to anyone. :(
