Goals

Create a Google Map with clickable pictures and track (enlarge the screenshot to better understand the main steps) .

Example:

Bike ride in the black forest, germany, 19th of may 07

29th of april bike ride

Stroll around a water fall in Germany,6 may 07

Around Mummelsee lac in Black Forest

Cycling near "the Donon" in Alsace, France

Steps

Before geocoding in GPicSync:

To view your pictures and track in Google Maps:

When you click on a camera icon you'll see a thumbnail of the picture. If you click on it the full size version will appear in your browser. A good idea is to click with the middle button of your mouse so it will appear in a separate tab in Firefox or IE7 (you won't have to reload your Google Map each time).

Warning, if you have more than 50 pictures it looks like Google Maps website won't show all of them.

Hello, It doesn't seem to work. Here's the URL I copied the doc-web.kml file, and the photos to: https://home.comcast.net/~mrfahey/doc-web.kml. When I enter this in the map search box, it asks me if I mean, "doc-web.xml". Thank you, Richard

Hello rmfahey, It looks like Google Maps don't like the "https" in your URL. I've used the same URL in google maps but exchanged "https" for "http" and it seems to works now (ie http://home.comcast.net/~mrfahey/doc-web.kml). Thanks for this feedback.
