=== Make the API re-user centric ===
 
=== Make the API re-user centric ===
    +
==== Description ====
 +
The Open Food Facts API is used by a wide variety of applications (more than 200 of them) helping people making better choice around food.
 +
 +
It has grown organically with time, on a volunteer bases, and is sometime messy and complicated to understand. This is a barrier to re-use and does make every one loose time.
 +
 +
==== Expected outcomes ====
 +
Propose a new API, limited to most important items, that is Open API compatible, well designed and easy to understand.
 +
 +
Project implementation could be in two ways:  either add a module to Product Opener to transform data to fit the new API (in perl), or either create a proxy in front of current API.
 +
 +
The project will be deployed as soon as possible and iteratively provides a more complete API.
 +
 +
Along the way, the current API documentation should be improved, and a full Open API compliant specification for the new API must be written.

=== Photo auto-crop and selection ===
 +
 +
====Description====
 +
Products photos are one of the most important asset from the database. It is also the first contribution user may do. It gives evidence for facts, and we thoroughly use OCR and Machine Learning to extract as much info as possible. Currently as you take a photo, you have to first select it's role and carefully crop the photo. This slow down contribution quite a lot and may discourage users in the long run. We won't to try to have crop and eventually selection done automatically, on device.
 +
====Expected outcomes====
 +
*Use on the shelf image detection libraries and implement auto crop for photos
 +
*Implement a batch photo acquisition mode
 +
*from there we can iterate on other features:
 +
**find a working heuristic to detect front image (or eventually train a model to detect them)
 +
**try to do detect photo languages automatically
 +
Note that this project is as much as mobile development as machine learning engineering.

=== Empower users through easy dataviz ===
 +
 +
==== Description ====
 +
We started a new project to boost search on Open Food Facts. This will help bring really useful informations to the general public, but also to power users like researchers, journalists, hacktivist or food experts. Right now Open Food Facts can [https://world.openfoodfacts.org/cgi/search.pl draw simple graph] that are already really useful to get insights (for example how is ultra-transformation related to Nutri-Score). We would like to use our new search engine to provide even more capabilities for data visualization. This tool will also be re-usable outside our project, as search-a-licious is a reusable ready to use engine.
 +
 +
==== Expected outcomes ====
 +
Have an API (on search-a-licious side) and a javascript library (possibly web-components) to enable easily making graphics to explore data. We should at least replicate current capabilities (through a far easier interface) to compare values on a set of products. We will add as many possibilities as we can afford. We will try our best to not re-invent the wheel and adapt existing libraries to our needs (vega-lite might be a good candidate). The regular search-a-licious team will actively help with the API part.

=== Help our moderators thanks to quick fix interfaces ===
 +
 +
==== Description ====
 +
As any crowdsourced project, Open Food Facts is at risk of seeing vandalism or malicious attacks over its contents. We already have a team of moderators and they are doing a great job, but we would like to ease their task both to coordinate effort and make it effective. We have just created a tool to help on this.
 +
 +
We would like to enhance this tool with specific interfaces that help fix recurring problems in just one interface and as little actions as possible.
 +
 +
==== Expected outcomes ====
 +
Create specific interfaces in NutriPatrol to fix recurring problems.  Examples are: removing images, unselecting an image, moving a set of photos to the right language, smartly revert a change, retrieve changes from a specific user for review, etc
 +
 +
A discussion with the moderators will help find the most important interfaces to develop.
 +
 +
The project will use the [https://openfoodfacts.github.io/openfoodfacts-server/api/ Open Food Facts API] to retrieve data on products and edit them. Interfaces will work browser side, ideally reusing and improving [https://github.com/openfoodfacts/openfoodfacts-nodejs our JavaScript SDK].
