GiSTEQ PhotoTrackr Plus is a photo geotagging solution that is created specifically for Nikon digital SLR cameras. Professional photographers can use PhotoTrackr Plus to geotag their JPEGs or RAW photos as they shoot. PhotoTrackr Plus brings convenience to the geotagging process and will not affect your photo processing workflow. Adding PhotoTrackr Plus to your camera is the easiest way to turn your DSLR into a GPS camera.
TIPS: Photo Geotagging is the process of adding geographical identification metadata to photographs. These data usually consist of latitude and longitude coordinates, as well as altitude, and place names. Photo Geocoding refers to the process of adding non-coordinate based geographical identifiers, such as a street address, to the photographs.
