Yeah for standards... And yeah for the simplest thing that could possibly work. I think we need to do the following... -capture images -process images -store images -provide an api to access the images -provide a viewer that knows how to access that api to display them. Am I missing something, or making something harder than it needs to be? Here are the exif 'gps' tags: http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/TagNames/GPS.html (I assume we will also use the standard EXIF tags for things like lens focal length, and when the shot was taken, etc) Does this list provide everything we need to capture in order to do what we want to do? --- GPSAltitude GPSAltitudeRef GPSAreaInformation GPSDOP GPSDateStamp GPSDateTime GPSDestBearing GPSDestBearingRef GPSDestDistance GPSDestDistanceRef GPSDestLatitude GPSDestLatitudeRef GPSDestLongitude GPSDestLongitudeRef GPSDifferential GPSImgDirection GPSImgDirectionRef GPSLatitude GPSLatitudeRef GPSLongitude GPSLongitudeRef GPSMapDatum GPSMeasureMode GPSPosition GPSProcessingMethod GPSSatellites GPSSpeed GPSSpeedRef GPSStatus GPSTimeStamp GPSTrack GPSTrackRef GPSVersionID On 6/12/07, Tom Longson (nym) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I'm personally interested in the smallest amount of effort to get something > working.
