Introduction gpx tagging​

When your camera has no GPS support build in you can use your mobile phone to keep your track. This application can combine a list of your recent locations and when the photo has taken into a location. When you have a GPX track file and a photo you can know where it is taken. With various sport track apps support exporting gpx files.

Important things to know​

  • Your camera date and time has to be correct.
  • Only gpx track files are supported (no 'way points' or routes).
  • All 'track points' should have a latitude, longitude, elevation and time in UTC.
  • You need to add your CameraTimeZone name to the Starsky configuration.
  • Gpx 'track points' more than 5 minutes difference are ignored.
  • 'Track points' less that 5 minutes difference are using the closest point
  • All gpx files in the selected folder are combined and used.

Introduction reverse 'geo tagging'​

To add the nearest city, state and country to the already 'geo tagged' file use reverse 'geo tagging'

Important things to know​

  • When the reverse 'geo tagged' item is less that 40 kilometers from that place add it to the file
  • Uses GeoNames.org data to for all cities with a population > 1000 or seats of adm div (ca 150.000)
