Upload Studio
Add photos, or choose a folder. The tail reader starts as each preview arrives. Full-resolution originals follow in the background while this tab stays open. Choosing the same files again resumes an upload that is still in progress. If an original sits idle for about 45 minutes, the preview can be published for display. Choosing that file again sends the full original to the same photo. It does not create a second photo. A first whole-aircraft photo of an eligible civil aircraft can earn 10¢.
JPEG, PNG, WebP, or HEIC. Dropping a folder includes nested files the browser allows. Choose folder includes the nested files that browser lists. Non-image files are counted and not uploaded. Choosing the same files again resumes an upload that is still in progress, including the full original after a preview was published.
Set the batch airportbefore you choose a folder. It’s stamped onto every photo the moment it uploads — so the tail-number resolver can cross-check ADS-B traffic for that field. Photos added before you set it won’t pick up a later change.
