OziPhotoTool
combines the technology of a GPS receiver and a digital camera
to automatically keep a record of where digital photos were
taken.
It was
originally designed to be used in conjunction with OziExplorer.
Most digital cameras have EXIF metadata stored as part of the
photo. This includes is the date and time the photo was taken.
Many GPS units have 'tracklogs'. The GPS keeps a record of
points that the unit has traveled over, including the time at
each point. OziExplorer can read tracks from many different
GPS units.
OziPhotoTool
takes the digital photos with EXIF metatdata, and tracks that
have been downloaded to OziExplorer to determine where the GPS
was when the photo was taken. As long as the GPS was in the
same location as the camera this represents the location of
the photo.
OziPhotoTool
outputs the linkage between the photo and its location by
creating an OziExplorer waypoint file, generating map features
on OziExplorer maps, watermarking the photos, embedding
location information in GPS EXIF tags, generating HTML output,
or creating GoogleEarth kml/kmz files so you can share you
photo locations. |
