GPicSync automatically inserts location in your photos metadata so they can also be used with any 'geocode aware' application like Picasa/Google Earth, Flickr, loc.alize.us, etc.
Features:
- automatically geocode your photos (in the EXIF header)
- use a GPS tracklog in the GPX format or NMEA format (multiple selection possible)
- Support elevation data if present in the tracklog
- create a Google Earth KML file to directly visualize the geocoded photos and track in Google Earth
- create a Google Maps file to publish your pictures and track on the web (more)
- Automatically associate audio or video files in Google Earth and Google Maps
- create a Google Earth KMZ file (containing your geolocalized pictures and tracklog).
- add additional geonames and 'geotagged' metadata (for automatic tagging in Flickr for example) and create an automatic IPTC caption (more)
- manually write latitude/longitude in a picture EXIF or a selection of photos
- handy tools integrated (Time correction tool, EXIF reader, GPX inspector, rename pictures with date/location,)
- supports Jpeg pictures and main RAW files format (more)
- software available in English, French, German, Italian, traditional and simplified Chinese, Catalan, Russian, Spanish, Polish, Portuguese and Czech (see translations)
Ready to geocode your photos? GettingStarted
GPicSync stands for G:GPS Pic:Pictures Sync:Synchronization and is a Free and Open Source tool.
Few examples of pictures geolocalized with GPicSync:
- Google Maps export from GPicSync: bike ride (see GoogleMapsExport)
- Audio or video feature a test example
- A bike ride in the vignard as seen in Yahoo maps of Flickr or the exported kmz file from Picasa (opens in Google Earth)
- One of my lunch breaks geolocalized (as seen in loc.alize.us which use Flickr and Google maps)
- Picassa kmz exports of some of my bike rides on a 'My maps'(see tutorial)
- A Google Earth KMZ file around Strasbourg (generated by GPicSync 'KMZ Generator' tool)
- First test while mountain biking (as seen in loc.alize.us)
And also GeolocalizedExamples form users.
Thanks for all the contribution/feedback and for the translations!
GPicSync also use two great Free Software tools in his back-end: EXIFTool and GPSbabel.
I began developing GPicSync as I didn't find any Open Source geocoding software with a graphical interface. GPicSync also provide original features like the Geonames meta-data and flights mods. You can find here an actualized list of other geocoding software.
