Project consists of 3 parts:
1) Image downloader script
This script will go to architectural sites (such as [login to view URL] ) and automatically download images.
Download will be monthly so the script has to be able to download only images that have not been downloaded before. It should have a resume option in case download is not completed or disconnected.
2) Sorter +uploader script
This script will sort the architectural images according to category/ type of building like hospital, school, hotel, house, office and upload to the website 3) below.
NOTE: Bidder has to explain how the script will automatically sort images into category of building and whether human staff are required to manually sort images that cannot be sorted by the script.
3) Simple website/resource (users access only) with architectural images database/ library sorted by categories with user log in.
-Only users can view images and users with certain access level can also upload images to the site.
-Images should be viewable by MacBook iphoto app.
-Website interface should very user friendly as minimal as possible with almost no text and on a black background. As this website is mainly for image viewing, there should be a few navigation buttons and have Macbook iphoto web interface. Attached is a screenshot from MacBook iPhoto
-Considering that storage will be few hundred thousand images (up to few hundred GB) as downloader script will download from 50 to 100 sites, the website should be done optimally in such a way that viewing/uploading or editing of images will be relatively fast.
-Please use open source like Wordpress, Joomla or Drupal.
Please provide portfollio of similar projects you have implemented before.
Successful bidder will be selected based on: reputation/track record, expertise and best price quote.
Please feel free to offer your suggestions/ solutions.
