Nokia Location Tagger

Overview

With Nokia Location Tagger, you can automatically tag your location data to your pictures. As you take a picture, your GPS coordinates are saved to the EXIF header of the JPEG file. You can use this data later, for example, to locate your pictures on a map.

Location tagging functionality has now been productized, and Nokia Location Tagger will not be further developed as standalone application

Attention! This application has graduated and is already implemented in at least the S60 3rd edition Feature Pack 2 devices. If you own one of these devices (or newer), you should have Location Tagger preinstalled.

Compatibility

Tested with: Nokia N95, N95 8GB, N82, E90, N73. Should work but not fully tested with: all Nokia devices based on S60 3rd edition.

Requires either an integrated GPS receiver, or an external Bluetooth GPS receiver module. Sharing your location-tagged pictures online requires Share Online 3.0.

Getting started

• Launch Nokia Location Tagger application.
• On the main screen, you will see the status of your GPS module. It will show the coordinate if GPS module is active. Otherwise, it will show "Searching".
• To tag pictures with GPS coordinates, simply use the built-in Camera application. Press the Camera button of your device to take pictures as usual. When Nokia Location Tagger is running in the background, you will see small icon at the top left corner of Camera’s view finder. This indicates the status of GPS module:
  • Green: GPS module is active.
  • Amber: Nokia Location Tagger is connecting to GPS module or searching for GPS coordinate.
  • Red: GPS module is inactive.

Known issues

• The pictures from secondary camera are not tagged. Nokia Location Tagger tags pictures from the main camera only.
• In a very rare case, Nokia Location Tagger may not be able to tag picture with the error message "File is being used".
• Pictures captured in burst mode may not be displayed in order in the Logs tab.
• This version has been tested on N95, N82, E90 as well as N73, N81 with external GPS module (Nokia LD-4W). It should work on all other devices; but there is no guarantee at this point.
