I have a Solmeta N2. Along with the GPS data, it also records the magnetic heading. Nikon Capture N2 dsiplays the EXIF field as "Heading". How to I see the field in Lightroom 2? How do I add it to a Print > Photo Info > Custom Field? Thanks, Jeff

Terry,Best! It lets you navigate and geocode your photos one by one or in groups right from within Google Earth. A 3.5 gps display with a touch screen interface makes it easy to select destinations.

GPS technology is already found in cars, boats, planes, construction equipment, film production equipment, agricultural machinery and even laptop Computer. GPS can give you many benefits

Geotagging mit der Nikon D80…

Da ich mich für die Nikon D80 und LightroomÂ entschieden habe, habe ich mich auch für Geotagging interesiert. Weil das eine der essentiellen EXIF erweiterungen ist.
Nach etwas Googlen wurde mir klar das diese Idee zwar nicht “neu”…

Terry,

Here is an update. Not sure if it is because of an upgrade or what, but the application HoudahGeo now will embed the .gpx data into RAW files. Or at least into Canon .crw files. You can check out my article here. http://thedigitaltrekker.com/news

You will be delighted to hear that HoudahGeo now has first-class manual geocoding using Google Earth. It lets you navigate and geocode your photos one by one or in groups right from within Google Earth. HoudahGeo is always up-to-date on which location in Google Earth you are looking at.

This feature has caused quite some excitement during demos at our Macoworld booth.

BTW, the Sony device is not compatible with Mac OS X 10.4.11, 10.5.0 or 10.5.1. I am not holding my breath for a fix in 10.5.2. Personally I use the Wintec WBT-201. I use Google Earth geocoding when I forgot to bring the Wintec or when I was indoors where it does not work.

Best,
Pierre Bernard

Thanks for another great tech review. I’d seen this around but never saw a credible review on its accuracy, etc.

To answer a few previous questions, I doubt it would work under cover (trees, in buildings, etc.). Typically, you need a receiver with a higher sensitivity antanae.

I’d also recommend this post, which provides a basic review of several options for geotagging photos on the PC.

[...] I’ll start with a brief look at what I tried, but didn’t work. While these didn’t work for me, they might work for you and your needs. Also, while I spent a good amount of time on the web, this list isn’t necessarily comprehensive and only includes programs for PCs – I wasn’t able to test anything for Macs. If you use a Mac, though, technology guru Terry White wrote a good review on GPS data conversion on the Mac (including a different GPS receiver than I chose). You can find it on Terry’s blog, here.

Hi Terry,

red your blog weeks ago and finally got the Sony Gps tracker. I just cannot find the tracker when I connect it to my MacBookPro, I am running still 10.4.11 as I am using a FileMaker sofware that is causing interference here in Europe. How will I get my gps track on my computer?

Hi Kristen,
It should work anywhere where there is a clear view of the sky. However, it won’t work underwater. So if you’re out on a boat, you should be fine.

Hello,
I was just at the Lightroom seminar in Hawaii and heard Scott mention the GPS adapter for the camera. I want to ask a stupid question, We sometimes have to record (picture) plants that we have had to hike a week to get to and sometimes we are out to sea collecting specimens, Will it work in such situations? I have a canon D5 (in out of the way areas)
Thanks Kris

Hi Dierk,
There’s a Nikon D300 on my shopping list. I currently use a D80 which doesn’t offer this ability. Thanks!
