Look at EXIF GPS info?

I'd love to see TripTracker be able to use GPS info stored in the EXIF data. That would save the trouble of having to upload and keep GPS track files.

OK, my bad. It looks like you are looking at the EXIF data, most of the time, it does look like it misses the data on some of my photos. I'm sure that will improve though.

Mojo, hi!

Could you post a link to a sample photo for which EXIF data is not parsed correctly so that we can investigate the problem.

Thanks,

Mojo,
TripTracker supports both EXIF and Flickr geo tags which both have higher priority when determining the location of the photo than GPS track. However I still recommend uploading the GPS track along with photos so that TripTracker can also render the trail on the map.
Please do point to the problematic photo(s) so we can debug and fix the problem.
You can also send the photos as attachments to help@triptracker.net.

Hey hey, who has passed their eyes accross an article on the excellent new device coming from SONY at the end of August called the SONY GPS-CS1, it records the GPS location one is at and stamps it with a time stamp, this then correlates with the time stamp on an image and that lat, lon info goes strait into the meta-data of the image.

It will work with any camera in the SONY range and most probrably okay with any cam that adhears to the EXIF 1.2 standard! This means that a bit of trickers on TripTrackers part could interrogate users uploaded image files for the GPS data and plot it on Google Maps, why am I so confident, simple, SONY is supplying software for the desktop that does this using G-Maps, so why not use G-maps online!

top man! top!

Jogger: Actually not much trickery is needed on TripTracker part. We already support images with GPS information embedded in EXIF header.
Theoretically the track can also be imported if the GPS-CS1 stores or exports it in any standard way which we already support.
And it will work with any digital camera out there.

jogger,
Sony GPS-CS1 creates gps tracks in NMEA format which is supported by TripTracker.
Just select the "NMEA 0183 sentences" gps track format
