Re: [Qgis-user] mobile gis and geotag on pocketpc?
Thanx all I installed gvSIG Mobile (the download with PhoneME Virtual Machine included) and it seem to run OK, found some satellites and could load simple shape files. JPG, TIFs etc didnt load, looks like one have to export them from gvSIG desktop to gvSIG Mobile, will try that. No Perl on the Ipaq (to my knowledge). Will synchronise clocks (lol) and try to use the gps tracklog for the tagging on the desktop. And then have a go with Peter Ersts exif data provider. Will be fun. / Fafner -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/mobile-gis-and-geotag-on-pocketpc--tp2666829p2674464.html Sent from the qgis-user mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
Re: [Qgis-user] mobile gis and geotag on pocketpc?
Hi, Regarding the photo-tagging, there is http://www.carto.net/projects/photoTools/gpsPhoto/ - based on perl. I don't know if your IPaq has Perl? It is a command-line application but easy to use. You'll need a GPX file and synchronized clocks (or you'd need to know the time-offset). So far I only used it for post-processing.

Combined with the PIL package for python you should be able to make a simple geotag app. I don't know of one out of the box. You can get all my code from http://www.siafoo.net/library/23 It's sounds like you just need a GPS logger and will tag the photos back on the desktop. If that's the case there are lots of applications for that like digikam. Alex ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
