Title: Geotagging?
Post by: SeaDrive on November 16, 2009, 02:29:51 pm

Since both my digital camers and my camcorder have built-in GPS I was hoping to start taking advantage of Geotagging. As I look at the mported files I notice that MC imports the latitude and longitude tags as something like N39 and W74. I can see that th elatitude and longitude in the image tag does contain the full lat/lon data. Is there any way to get the full info into MC? I was hoping to at least create a link to Google maps and send the lat/lon as part of th esearch string.

Has anyone had any success with any method of Geotag mapping?

Even better: With Geotagger you can look up and add the Country, City, state sublocation etc. when you have the coordinates. That way one can make meaningfull views. If online these tags were supported/imported in MC!!!

I have to agree.   Geo-tagging would be a truly awesome feature!

If it could be like Picasa that would be sweet.  I dislike the fact that I cant really edit geotags in Picasa.
