Hehe, I tried using the gallery googlemaps theme once, but i found it way to slow to be usable.

I also really really really cbf tagging nearly 2000 photos. The concept is great, especially for my photos which are mostly taken overseas too.

Next: camera with automatic gps tagging.

Cool thing!

How did you get the data into the EXIF info of the pictures?
Does it work under Linux (not the device, I mean the application for the picture/time/coordinate correlation)?

Thanks!

i used gpscorrelate, a little gtk tool for that job. get it from here: http://freefoote.dview.net/linux_gpscorr.html

it reads GPX logfiles only, though. gpsbabel helps.
so in shortform, i did:

$ gpsbabel -i nmea -f sonylogfile.log -o gpx -F output.gpx
$ gpscorrelate

rest is mouse-clicking and rather obvious. hope it helps. tell me when your map is online

i'm pondering writing a little qt4 tool for doing that job and reading NMEA data directly. (or rather integrating gpsbabel support, so you could theoretically use it with any device)

cheers,
muesli
