PSE 12 and GPS Data

Hi.
Have found only one other post about this and it seems that there may be some misunderstanding as to what some users are doing, so I will explain in some detail. Please note that I have only just moved to PSE 12.
I import the my photos directly from my Flash Cards into the Organiser Album (Ctrl+G). As my camera does not have an internal GPS, I take an external GPS with me and use GeoSetter to update the EXIF data on the imported images. GeoSetter not only provides the GPS coordinates it also provides the location names (country, state, city, etc.) and this is all populated into the EXIF file. This data is visible to the PSE 12 Organiser.
On an old versions of PSE (that had Yahoo maps) I would then refresh the images (have forgotten the command) and the GPS data would be used by the Organiser. I would then select the images and use "Show on Map" and all shot and location points would become visible on the map.
I assume that PSE 12 can accept GPS and Location data from the EXIF, if its imported from the card because it does seem to have this functionality.
I'm unable to find a way to get PSE 12 to refresh the Organiser so that it can now use the GPS and Location data that has been written to the EXIF file after its been imported.
Can anybody help?

Some things that I have found out:
If you select your new photos (or all, if this is the first time you are using PSE 12 and you have imported an old catalogue), "Right Click" -> "Update Thumbnails" the GPS locations from the images will show on the Map. While the flags have been pinned into the map, the association to the images have not. Sounds confusing, or even impossible, how could the flags be displayed without linking to the image?
When it comes to updating the "Places" in other words the location "Place Tags" in PSE 12 it seems that these have to be placed manually. That is, you are required to place the images on a Map location to get that location recorded. So the data help in the EXIF file is ignored.
I'm very confused by how this system has been designed, I could even speculate that only part of the design has been coded, so they released what worked?
If there is somebody out there with a Camera with an internal GPS, I would like to know if the GPS data and location tagging is supported when images are imported.
PS: The online help is no help because it talks about features and even buttons that don't currently exist.

Video and GPS data from iPhone movie?

Hi, I have following problem/ idea for a solution: I lost the canopy of by model airplane during a flight in a wheat field. Now I am looking for a solution to find it: what about a video camera and a GPS device, flying over the field, recording video and GPS data, play back video and (hopefully) find the canopy at frame xyz. Then read out the GPS position at this frame and go back in the field to the GPS coordinates and find what I lost.
So the questions are:
1. are the Video recordings stamped (?) with a continuous GPS position
2. can this data be read out
3. is there an app that can do this
4. is this the correct forum for this question?
Thanks for any ideas
BTW: I already tried to order a new canopy, no luck...

Let me get this straight... You lost the canopy for your model airplane... Now you want to strap your iPhone to another model airplane and fly it all over in the area where you lost the canopy.
Piece of advice: Make sure you set up find my iPhone on it before you send it out on its mission. you may need it, in combination with its ability to emit an alarm when triggered remotely, to find the iPhone after it falls off the search plane.
With luck, the fallen iPhone will land near the canopy you seek.
To try and answer the questions:
1. I believe the entire recording gets 1 location coded in the metadata. It is not a continuous stream of location data.
2. Not relevant based on the answer to 1.
3. I seriously doubt it, but I won't be shocked if someone has come up with something among the half million or so apps out there.
4. I don't think there is a correct forum for this, but this works as well as any.

Problem with JPEG files from Leica M and GPS data

It seems there's a serious bug in Camera Raw 8, hosted in Bridge CS6 on an MS Windows machine, with regard to GPS metadata.
When using a Leica M (Typ 240) with a multi-function handgrip then both the DNG files (DNG is Leica's native raw format) and the JPEG files out of the camera will include GPS position data in the respective EXIF metadata sections. However, Bridge refuses to display the JPEG files' GPS data (while there's no problem with the GPS data in the DNG files). Worse yet—when loading a JPEG file in Camera Raw for some parametric adjustments and saving the file then the GPS data will be entirely gone! (Again, no problems with the DNG files' GPS data.)
I suppose that Camera Raw 8 hosted in Bridge CC as well as Lightroom 5 are suffering from the same issue.

Nobody? Absolutely nobody?? Zalman? Eric? Anyone?
If you need more input from me then please talk to me.

Efficient optimized way to read from serial port and GPS data display using map

Hi,
I have a custom h/w which reads the data from GPS Rx and after parsing send it to PC over RS232.
Each second it sends 201 bytes to PC. I have developed a VI to read the GPS data and display it. Project file is attached.
Fulctionality of different loops are as following:
1. LOOP 1: 1.1 Reads the serial data from com port.
               1.2 Synclonize the frame using start bytes "a" and "z".
               1.3 Reads next 4 bytes containg receiving error information.
               1.4 Reads next 195 bytes. in which initial 80 byes are GPS data. rest are others.
2. LOOP 2: 2.1 Extarcts the GPS information and put them in an array.
                  2.2 Extarcts the receive error infor and counts the total error by incrimenting the variable using shift reg.
3. LOOP 3:3: 3.1 Displays the GPS data in chart and log the data in a file.
4. FLOW : Uses the GMAP .NET based API to creat a MAP and display.
Problem statement:
1. Functionality acheived.
2. However in between data set is being missed by the programm.
Quesitions:
1. Is the developed VI is efficient in terms of using queue loacl variables etc.
2. What are the improvments I can do to solve the problem.
Any other suggestions|
Thank you

One of the most common problems in serial communication is the need for an adequate timing: how much time is expected your device to spend before answering? Have you put and adequate pause in your code before reading from the serial port?
Hope this helps

Time and GPS data windows

Hello all
I was presented this sample 1080 frame and was asked if I can do this if time and GPS metadata were part of the video recording. In other words, how do you burn in this data in the video itself. I have P Pro CS 6 @ home and am a complete novice to video editing. Final product may or may not need this, more curious as to how its done - special camera system or in post processing?
Thanks!

If whoever shot the video recorded time of day timecode synced from a GPS receiver that was close to the camera (in your case that looks like it would mean mounted in the helicopter), you can use the time code data to match your GPS metadata to the video. I use an automated process to incorporate the the metadata into the video, but the process is all done with custom software that the CEO of our company wrote. The other people I've seen incorporating GPS metadata into video are also using customized, proprietary processes. If you're adding the data in post, you will have to translate the data into Premiere titles or After Effects text keyframes or something else that you can overlay on the video.
You can also use hardware during your shoot to overlay the GPS data onto the video. I don't use any products that do this, and I don't know how easy they are to find for purchase, but there definitely are people in the geospatial sector who feed video through a GPS-aware piece of video processing hardware that overlays time and position data in real time. In this case you would feed video (most likely through HD-SDI) from your camera to the GPS overlay hardware and then to a recorder.
There certainly aren't any GPS features built into Premiere Pro. If you want to add titles manually, you'll have to match the time code with your GPS data and make a new title each time the GPS info is supposed to update. GPS data is usually some form of table or spreadsheet with time, coordinates, and other positional data, so you can find the correct time in the video and make a title that includes the corresponding coordinates for that time. If you're doing this for more than a few seconds of video, it will be an unreasonably long and tedious process, but it is possible.

Exif and gps-data in xmp-file overwritten, sometimes

I have a problem where LR4 on import seems to rewrite the xmp-files, and in that process data is lost, notably GPS-data, is lost.
My workflow:
Create xmp-file with Exiftool from CR2-files (sets copyright etc)
Geocode with Geosetter
Color labels with Photo Mechanic
Import to LR4
After import geo data is gone for around 30% of the files. It seems like files that have recieved a color label by PM is not affected, and many files without color label are correctly imported.
I never loose any data before importing to LR4.
Anyone have any suggestions about what could be going on?
I use a Canon 7D, Exiftool and Geosetter are updated to latest versions, LR version is 4.3.
I couldn't find how to attach files, but if anyone is interested in seeing how the xmp looks before and after LR4 import, I could copy-paste the code in an answer.
Best regards,
/Pär

Hi Pär,
Do I understand correctly that you have an xmp-sidecar present to your CR2-raws, when importing into Lightroom?
Then LR should read it during import.
Maybe the format standards are not clear, maybe Geosetter does not write the xmp-parts where LR expects the data?
But to save your original xmps: change your catalog preference settings, to NOT automatically write xmp to files.
Then you will have time, because then LR just reads the xmps on import, but does not write anything, unless you invoke it by selecting images and hitting <ctrl> s.
Which you would only do once you have assured that everything from your original xmp has arrived in LR's catalog.
Maybe it does not work reading that just during import, but possibly on a 2nd read after?
You could check, once you have disabled auto-xmp-writing, by invoking another explicit Read Metadata from File.
...just a wild guess, to rule out a potential bug there...

WiFi and GPS - Data Usage

8900 Curve (EDGE, Wi-Fi)
Carrier - Rogers
v.4.6.1.250 (Platform 4.2.0.113)
Simple and stupid questions:
1. If the WiFi is enabled, does it mean if I surf the internet any downloading of the pages or surfing does not count towards my data plan usage? Is that correct?
2. There is a golf application (I'm sure there are many) that allows my device to be used as a GPS distance device for golf. It uses the GPS of my device. Is it true that if the app is designed so that my device uses the satellite GPS system vs the cell tower GPS, that there will be no data usage (other than the downloading of the app itself and golf course itself - not major drain of data usage).
Sorry for the questions above if they are simple and stupid.

1. The native BlackBerry OS itself, and most applications, will prefer the WiFi connection.
2. Yes, the GPS signal is via satellite. Your mapping data is from your EDGE or carrier connection. I don't know about your EXACT golf course map application, but it is my experience that mapping aplications do use lots of data.

Bridge CS5 and GPS data

Hi,
I want to add a geographical description to my photos (streets names, etc)
Do you know a practical way to display in Google Earth or Maps the place from coordinates?
Bridge displays a non standard data format like 54,56.9005W
At this time I open Earth, create an untitled placemark anywhere in the map, then edit it and copy from Bridge lat and long to placemark description box.
Then adjust format to 54°56.9005'W, same as lat. Then I have to manually zoom in and move to find the placemark. No 'display' or something to do it automatically in Earth, only 'directions from here', 'directions to..'
It is a very slow procedure.
Thank you

GPS data format in Bridge is based on Adobe Extensible Metadata Platform(XMP) standard. The only supported format is GPS format dd,mm.mmmmW.
Thanks,
Bridge QE

Majority of GPS data Doesn't copy from iPhoto to Aperture 3

Having spent lots of time and effort geo tagging old photos Apertures ability to use this seemed very useful. Having left my iMac copying all my pics to a new Aperture Library for a day (17,000 images) not all of my geotagged pictures are still geotagged in Aperture.
Of 5934 pictures appearing in "Places" on iPhoto, only 1746 appear in "Places" on Aperture.
From what I can tell, the 1746 photos are those photos that were geotagged when imported into iPhoto (iPhone pictures plus some more recent DSLR pics that I synced with a gps tracker using GPSPhotolinker).
All the manually assigned photos - some 4200 odd - only have GPS data assigned to the iPhoto database reference of the photo, not the image itself. I tested this:
1. In iPhoto, choose a manually tagged pic and goto Photos>Show Extended Photo Info. In the extended info are latitude and longitude references (the manual pin drop does collect this info)
2. Download "GPS-info". This will display any GPS data stored in a file when selected in the Finder
3. back to iPhoto, and with the same phoo selected in step 1, right click and select Show File. This will bring up the image location in a finder window
4. Now open GPS-info, downloaded in step 2. This will show there is no GPS info stored in the image
Repating the above steps for a photo tagged outside of iPhoto and GPS data is assigned and the image does appear in "Places" in Aperture.
So basically, I'm a little hacked off the all my hard work seems to have been wasted. I'm hoping someone will read this and tell my how I'm being a prat and I should have done x, y and z, but please post your experiences with importing geotagged iphoto photos.
Thanks!

Missing GPS data after Publish to Flickr

Hi, I'm using a GPS Geotagger with my D3.
In LR3.2 I can see GPS data correctly in my metadata.
I then publish photos to Flickr using th built in LR publishing service.
When I check the metadata in Flickr there is no associated GPS info in the EXIF data.
I haven't got anything checked like 'minimize embedded metadata'
Anyone have this working or is it a known problem?
Thanks
Bill

1/ to answer your question:
I don't have any user generated tags/kewords/captions on these historical pictures - but normal metadata (camera EXIF data) is showing up fine on flickr.
2/ I went ahead and tried Jeffery Friedl's Flickr Lightroom publishing plugin - it works well and GPS data is correctly picked up by Flickr.
so - unless anyone can demonstrate a working adobe flickr publishing setup with gps data I will assume it doesn't work and continue to use jeffery's.
Thanks
Bill

Pictures with GPS-data will not be shown in list-view (PSE 11, Win7)

A lot of pictures of my collection do have GPS-data in EXIF-header. Sometimes they are shown on the world-map, sometimes not. In list-view they are never shown. The list-view knows only locations, which are matched with PSE.
The EXIF-input was made by two different tools (Holux GPS Software and Geosetter 3.4.16).
How can I get the list-view for the saved files without using PSE adding location?

Many modern cameras add GPS co-ordinates and these will usually show in the info panel of the Media module under Camera Data >> GPS
I guess your exif tools work differently to a camera. Are you able to embed the metadata into the image files before importing into PSE Organizer?

I have an otterbox for my iphone 4s. I have a alpine 910 gps stereo and want to know if there are any docking units that hold my iphone while inside the otterbox case and can charging, and transferring data to the stereo?

I have an otterbox case for my iphone 4s and want to know if there's a docking unit where i can sit my phone in with the case still on and with a usb connection it'sll charge and transfer data (music, video, etc, to my stereo unit (alpine 910 gps)

Apple isnt here. this is a user based forum for technical questions. The solution is to restart, reset, and restore as new which is in the manual after that get it replaced for hard ware failure. if your within your one year warranty its replaced if it is out of the warranty then it is 199$

How to check image GPS data and get image file from image field

Hello,
I have some trouble and want to fix this problem.
1. I want to validate image file before its attached in image field about the image file have a GPS data or not. Have any way that can be check about image has contained a GPS data?
2. After validate image and PDF form is upload to the server. I want to get image file that embed in image field, because I have to extract image from PDF form and store this image in project image folder. If this topic can be fix by code script please give me some example code.
Thakyou for every comment and suggestion
Best Regards,
Mai

Hi Naill,
First I have to say thankyou for your answer.
About my (1) question, My image fields have set to be a embedded data and I try to test many example script of image fields.I can get image content type, image size. But that not work when I used ImageField1.desc.embeddedHref.value. It's response as "Unknown Embedded URI". Therefore, image field is and embedded data. How can I access filename?
(2) In that forum. As I see, his problem is about how to automate change image field with href image file. But I want to extract an exist embedded image in PDF form to normal image file with original metada (such as extract image filed to .JPEG with GPS data. Same as before attached in PDF form.). There has any concept or solution in this problem?
Best Regards,
Mai

How do I edit and then export so as to retain my GPS data?

Im shooting Nikon D5100 and D3200 Cameras with Nikon GP1 GPS receivers. Im shooting jpg FINE and LARGE. I can import, batch and/or individual edit, rename, number ect. and then able export but after I export my images my GPS data is gone. Im running an iMac with the latest OS and LR 5.2 64bit
I do not do anything else with LR except as follows:
I import directly from a desk top file folder and export to a new seperate file folder within the original folder. I DO NOT keep any images "in" light room at all and do not "auto import" or anything else. I remove all pics from LR after I have exported them then import the next batch of pics. I have my own filing and storage system of doing things do dont need those functions.
Im just using LR to straighten & crop and do basis exposure, contrast, and sharpening my pics thats it. I have a few presets for batching which is great. Im running hundreds of pics at time with no issues and Im also able to tweak large tiff files. All very simple editing and LR paid for itself after my very first use.
I am re-naming and numbering my pics and then exporting them. Nothing fancy here. As mentioned I remove the imported pics from LR when Im done editing and exporting them and then import the next batch. Its great. All very simple editing and re-naming.
I need to be able to do all of this editing and keep the GPS data that was recorded on the pics on the camera with the GP1. Any help with an answer on how to do this would be greatly appreciated.
JTP1

I scrolled down to Metadata in Export and "Copyright Only" was selected and the "remove locaction info" box was ticked. I will run a test set of images with "All Metadata" selected and "remove Location Info" un-checked too see if it will work. Thank you very much!
