Ever since our trip to Jamaica, I’ve been thinking about geotagging images, where photos have lattitude/longitude coordinates “automatically” added into their metadata. The obvious use is to be able to pinpoint on a map exactly where a photo was taken is really cool, but there are endless other applications for this technology. The best case scenario for the photographer would be a camera that had a GPS built in and just recorded the lat/lon in the EXIF data every time you push the shutter. Problem solved. Unfortunately, there are no cameras that I know of have a GPS built in right now so photographers these days need to use a separate camera and GPS unit and some software to integrate the data afterwards.
That's what I'm investigating. Stay tuned...
