[Digikam-users] How to use geolocation?

[rawi]

I've just worked it out recently...

Select your photos to be geotagged in the thumbnails view.

Call Image->Geolocation.

Your chosen photos are listed bottom left.
Choose a map top left, OSM or Google..., you can zoom in very deep...
You can search a location (city etc) inside the Search-Tab at the very right
side of the window, then correct the map view to your desired photo
location.
Then go back to the Details Tab.
Select one or more photos bottom left and drag-drop them on the map to the
locations they where taken. The locations will be taken from the map.
!!! You see the adopted location for a particular photo in the folders top
right _only_if_  you _double_ click the thumbnail bottom left and the photo
will be shown bottom right. Then you get displayed its location top right
and can edit it directly.
After editing directly a location for a photo then click the button APPLY in
the middle between location fields and displayed photo.
With the right mouse click on a thumbnail you can also copy-paste locations
between photos.

Don't forget to apply the changes at the very end :)

Back again in the thumbnails view open the Geolocation from the right side
of the main window and select successively the thumbnails you've just
geotagged. The shown map will jump each time to the right assigned location.
Gorgeous!

BTW... Should you want to geotag and arrange the photos along a gps track
from a gps device, see the GPSCorrelator Tab of the Image->Geolocation-Tool.

Have fun!

And... Kudos to the programmers!

If only I could lock a desired zoom level on the map... see my own question
yesterday... ;)
