This is a task archaeologists often have to do with hundreds of digital images of our precious sites.
The starting point is to have geographic data in your image. Typically with a tablet this would be through a GPS location from your internal GPS which is subject to all the limitations on hand held GPS's discussed in an earlier thread. With some photo management programs you can add locational data to the image EXIF metadata. I use Photo Mechanic and the set GPS sub-program opens a Google maps window and you can click on the desired location and it will set it in the image metadata. With Photo Mechanic you can export the data as a CSV delimited file then upload to QGIS and you get a point file of locations or as Nicholas said there is an Import Photos plugin that imports geotagged photos. I have only used it once so I cannot tell whether it works for large numbers of images. Cheers Dr Iain Stuart JCIS Consultants P.O. Box 2397 Burwood North NSW, 2134 (02) 9701 0191 (0413) 380116 (m)
