geo tagged photos

Started by xaver on Feb 26, 10
I'd like to be able to add geo tagged photos (if ridewithgps can take care of the geo tagging - even better). This feature would allow you to upload pictures with gps coordinates in the EXIF meta tags to a trip. the pictures would then be shown on the map/route where it was taken. just to make sure there is no misunderstanding. i wouldn't expect ridewithgps to geotag pictures (there are lots of tools out there to do that). however when i upload geotagged pictures, i'd like to see them displayed on the maps.

I have had great success geotagging my photos with some free software I found. Check it out.

Works for me.
One thing I did find an issue with; it requires the track you rode (or hiked, etc.) be created in gpx format. When I created that file from 'Ride With GPS' , it wouldn't work with the Geosetter software. What I did was create the gpx file from the Garmin Connect website. That gpx file worked fine. It gets your ride/hike/track to Google Earth along with your photos....good stuff. It should work for Google Maps as well, but I've yet to try that.
I'm using a Garmin 705 and an ordinary point-and-shoot digital camera.

I have a software to geotag my pictures. no problem there - and not a function i'd expect ridewithgps go handle.
i'd like for pictures with gps coordinates (geotagged) to be displayed on ridewithgps on the maps.
