Hello Street art afficianados globally. I started a pet project over the pandemic that I am now trying to manifest into reality. I've been collecting images of a single street artist around Frankfurt that I want to turn into a webmap to share the locations of the artist's work. I've been in contact with them, and they are supportive of the concept.

As I'm in the early stages of development, I wanted to crowd source ideas here for features that street art fans might want to see in such an app. My plan is to make something a little more useful than a basic google map with points, but not too crazy so I don't bit off more than I can chew. I currently have more than 900 locations of small market pieces, stickers, wall pieces of various sizes, and murals

At the moment I am planning on having at least these features/functions:

  • Map with locations, popups with art image and description
  • place your self on the maps (to see where the nearest to you is)
  • Filter by art type: (tags, stickers, wall pieces by size (sm, med, lg)
  • Share an art location (map click + form)

I realize that it would probably be more interesting to focus on more than one artist/crew, and that's something I can consider in the future.

All of that said, I welcome any and all suggestions for potential map functions and I'd be happy to spitball/workshop this further with anyone who is interested in the idea. While I can't promise anything about code quality/usability, I'm more than happy to share the code of my final result to be repurposed for similar applications if anyone is interest

Thanks in advance,

ASP 02 S9 TransArtSpots is a non-profit and 100% community-driven project. We run it because we love to discover art and share it with others. The app does not contain any ads and we do not get money from this project at all. That's why we ask for your help! 

Wanna help spread the word about the App?

It would be great if you can tell your friends about ArtSpots, or if you run a website or blog, share the news and post a page. If you are active on social media, please also spread the word among your friends - art needs a space without commerce and it should be us, who count, not money and some shareholders. Thank you!

If you need pictures and stuff, here is the download to a media package, containing screens of the app, the image teaser and a short description you can freely use.

See you in ArtSpots.
