[Digikam-users] GeoLocation Question

Hi there,

If your mobile photos have the geolocation data in a format digikam can read, it's simple.
Mark the images you want to tag, go to geolocation under the image menu, right click on the tagged photo and copy coordinates. Then choose the untagged images, right click and paste.
Sorry, not sure about the english names and might be wrong with the exact menu - am on holiday and far away from my digikam install.

What I do is to use my mobile as a gps tracker and then use digikams time correlation function to find the gps coordinates for the images - usually works quite well and easy (though I frequently forget to set the cameras clock to the local time, but digikam allows to adjust for that). If you take the mobile with you anyway that's probably the more conveniant solution.
