I have a PHP based application that runs on the Google Maps API. Most of it is written in straight PHP and Javascript, but I want to use some sort of CMS or tool to upload images, because there will be large numbers of images and categories to go with those images. So I want to use the "Media" portion of Wordpress to add/edit/delete images and then use some sort of Wordpress tag to add them to the page. Any insights as to the best way to do this?

1You can't just use "the "Media" portion of Wordpress" anymore than you can just use the "transmission portion" of a car without dismantling the car and building a new structure around it. That is a pretty broad request.– s_ha_dumCommented Dec 18, 2015 at 17:00

You can use the WP REST API plugin to add/manipulate/present media of a WordPress install from within your app. The page creation part I am not sure of, perhaps it'll need to be done manually - or you can create pages via the /pages/ endpoint.
I'll let someone correct me if I'm wrong, but the API endpoints (which are available at the link as a plugin) either made it into core already, or are really close to it.
