Ingress is a game where users contribute "portals".

Each portal has:

  • Coordinates
  • Name, for instance "Eiffel Tower"
  • Picture

As a consequence, the object of each Ingress portal is a building/place whose picture should be sent to Wikimedia Commons.

An easy way to find good places to shoot for insertion in Commons would be to visit all Ingress portals that don't have a Commons picture within 300 meters.

Is there a database of all portals, or an API to find portals at least in a given area?
What I mostly need is coordinates, but name+picture would be a nice bonus.
