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.

Time and/or Date incorrect after moving/copying/importing

This has been going on for years and has messed up hundreds, maybe more, of the time/date on my photos in Aperture.
If I select my entire photo library (typically preset to 'Date - Ascending') in Aperture, I can find hundreds of photos out of order. When I look at them in 'Info', the time and sometimes date has changed by several hours. I'm not sure if this is an Aperture thing or Mac thing? Over the years I have moved and/or copied photos from smaller HDDs to larger HDDs to eventually a NAS unit and/or from iPhoto to Aperture.
I have made calls to Tech Support, but they have always made me feel as if I made some mistake on my end or I didn't set the time correctly to begin with (now this could be correct with the P&S I share with my girlfriend, but very rarely with my DSLR). But I also explained that it was random (3 to 5 photos in a set).
So today as I was trying to update some of my photos, I came across some photos (and videos) I took last year with my iPhone (my iPhone always has the correct time and date or 99.9%). I originally uploaded these to an old iPhoto library I still have (all the dates and times are correct). These same photos and videos (55 over a 3 day period) were moved to my Aperture library some time ago and 3 of the 55 have the incorrect time by -7 hours (ie. 3:30 pm is now 8:30 am).
Why does this happen?? I have not set any time changes to these photos. If I did, they would all have the wrong time and not just 3 of them would be off.
Is anyone having this issue and if so, was there a way to get the corrcet time/date from the photo hidden deep down in the EXIF? This is driving me crazy.
Here are some screen shots of the same photo in iPhoto and Aperture.
iPhoto 5:28:09 PM - Correct
Aperture 10:28:09 AM - Incorrect -7 hrs
TIA if anyone can help. I just don't have the time to go back and try and change all these photos.

Thanks for the reply, I will try to post the screenshots again (they still show for me, odd?).
Anyway, this is not a zoning problem. This is a moving or copying problem.
The photos I tried to show from the screen shot I took last year at a concert in Coachella (same time zone as my residence in Redondo Beach). The shots were taken using my iPhone which has GPS and constant updating of Time. All the photos and videos show up correctly in Places (GPS) and all the correct times show in iPhoto.
The issue occurs when the photos are moved to Aperture. Randomly the time has changed to -7 hours on a few photos. This same randomness has occured to hundreds of my photos that I have imported into Aperture over the years. As I said before, Tech Support and everyone else has placed the blame on me within my camera settings or improper importing.
Now that I use my iPhone more often, I have proof that the settings are correct and that Aperture or Finder or ?? within Apple has changed the Time randomly. Also, if I had 'Accidently' opened the 'Time Zone' brick when importing (as suggested by Tech Support), all the photos would have the incorrect time and not just a few random ones.
iPhoto original from iPhone - Time 5:28:09 correct
Aperture photo from iPhoto - Time 10:28:09 incorrect -7 Hrs
Thanks again,
Narvon

Select Records between Begin Date/Time and End Date/Time

Hi, I need to select records from table GLPCA where the CPUDT and CPUTM are between a START DATE/TIME and END DATE/TIME.
I have the below logic from an SAP Solution, but it doesn't seem to be working right in my opinion. It is picking up records earlier than the date ranges. Can anyone tell me how I might be able to accomplish this? I'm hoping this is an easy one for the ABAPPERs...
Thanks,
START DATE 20091022
START TIME 125736
END DATE 20091022
END TIME 135044
CPUDT 20091022
CPUTM 100257
      SELECT * FROM GLPCA
         WHERE ( CPUDT >= STARTDATE AND ( CPUTM >= STARTTIME OR ( CPUDT <= ENDDATE AND CPUTM <= ENDTIME ) ) ).

Thank you all! I ended up using the following:
SELECT * FROM GLPCA
          WHERE RYEAR IN L_R_RYEAR
            AND ( ( CPUDT = STARTDATE AND CPUTM >= STARTTIME ) OR CPUDT > STARTDATE )
            AND ( ( CPUDT = ENDDATE   AND CPUTM <= ENDTIME )   OR CPUDT < ENDDATE ).

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.

UTC Date Time and Normal Date Time

Hi All,
1. How UTC date time and Normal date time differs in siebel.
2. If legacy data needed to be loaded into siebel, in siebel few fields are date time and UTC date time fields. what would happen if we load both normal date time and UTC date time without considering them techinically?
3. UTC date time holds any specific format in physical database? If we want to load legacy data to UTC date time format what is the query to manipulate it?
Thankyou

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.

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?

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

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...

HCM Time and Attendance - data requirements

Can anyone help with what data is required from an external time and attendance collection application.
E.G. First Name, Last Name, Emploee Code, Location, Clock in, Clock out and the big one is an 'hours calculated' data required?
Regards
Ray

you would some javascript to refresh
but this works in standard without doing any extra coding
or yoiu can check this
The flag event.target.dirty should be set to true at an appropriate
position (probably form:ready event) for adobe reader versions < 9.
Given below is a sample (javascript):
if ( xfa.host.version < 9) { //handles 8.x.x and previous
event.target.dirty = true;
ie
During the initialization of a PDF form, Since 'dirtyState' is a
property of Reader, and when we open a PDF form, reader would set that
property as "false" automatically. That's why the dirty state could not
be changed to true in some event (like, initialize or Form:readey).
Inorder to set the dirty state to ture, we need to set it after the
initialization of the PDF form. Otherwise, the dirty state would be set
as false during the initialization by default.
The solution would be that they could try this script :
ContainerFoundation_JS.setGlobalValue(event.target, "saveDirtyState",
true);
SaveDirtyState is a property used by ZCI code to judge if a PDF form is
dirty or not.

Daylight Savings time, and how dates are stored internally and displayed

This is probably a question that appears here annually, but I couldn't really find clear answers, so I'll try asking this in my own words:
I'm in the Eastern timezone, and this Sunday, we'll be turning our clocks back an hour at 2:00 AM. That means that accordign to us humans, the time 1:30 AM will occur twice on Sunday.
I've got an Oracle application that runs every 5 minutes around the clock, and it selects records from a certain table whose updated timestamp (TIMESTAMP(6)) is greater than SYSDATE - 5/1440, meaning any record that was updated in the last 5 minutes. Will we have a problem with some records being processed twice on Sunday morning? I'm theorizing that everything will be OK, that internally, Oracle stores DATE fields using something like an epoch which then gets interpreted when we display them. An epoch value will continue to grow each second no matter what “time” it is according to the U.S. Congress.
A simpler way to look at the question might be as follows:
If you store SYSDATE in a DATE column in row “X” at 1:30 AM before the time change, and you store sysdate in row “Y” exactly one hour later, will Oracle say that X’s timestamp is 60 minutes less than Y’s timestamp? All fields that are related to my particular situation are either DATE or TIMESTAMP(6).
We use 11g.

>
That settles that! Thank you! My theory was wrong! I appreciate the help.
>
You may think it settles that but, sorry to burst your bubble, that doesn't really settle much of anything.
One thing that was settled is the answer to this question
>
But are they talking about what you can EXTRACT and DISPLAY from the field or what is actually STORED internally?
>
which is, as Mark stated, they are talking about what is stored internally.
The other thing that was settled is that you will pull the same, or mostly the same, data twice during that one hour. I say 'mostly the same' because of the major flaw your extraction method has to begin with.
>
If you store SYSDATE in a DATE column in row “X” at 1:30 AM before the time change, and you store sysdate in row “Y” exactly one hour later, will Oracle say that X’s timestamp is 60 minutes less than Y’s timestamp?
>
No - they will have the same time since 'one hour later' would have been 2:30 AM but the clock was turned back an hour so is again 1:30 AM. So the second time your job runs for 5 minutes at 1:30 AM it will pull both the original 1:30 AM data AND the data inserted an hour later.
And Oracle will say that data stored in row "Z" exactly 45 minutes later than "X" at 1:30 AM will have a date of 1:15 AM and will appear to have been stored earlier.
Your method of extracting data is seriously flawed to begin with so the daylight savings time issue is the least of your problems. The reason is related to the answer to this question you asked
>
do people avoid using DATE and TIMESTAMP datatypes because they are too simple?
>
That method isn't reliable - that is why people avoid using a date/timestamp value for pulling data. And the more often you pull data the worse the problems will be.
>
I've got an Oracle application that runs every 5 minutes around the clock, and it selects records from a certain table whose updated timestamp (TIMESTAMP(6)) is greater than SYSDATE - 5/1440, meaning any record that was updated in the last 5 minutes
>
No - it doesn't do that at all, at least not reliably. And THAT is the why your method is seriously flawed.
The reason is that the value that you use for that DATE or TIMESTAMP column (e.g. SYSDATE) is assigned BEFORE the transaction is committed. But your code that extracts the data is only pulling data for values that HAVE BEEN committed.
1. A transaction begins at 11:59 AM and performs an INSERT of one (or any number) of records. The value of SYSDATE used is 11:59 AM.
2. The transaction is COMMITTED at 12:03 AM.
3. Your job, which runs every five minutes pulls data for the period 11:55:00 AM to 11:59:59 AM. This job will NOT see the records inserted in step #1 because they had not been committed when your job query began execution - read consistency
4. Your job next pulls data for the period 12:00:00 AM to 12:04:59 AM. This job will also NOT see the records inserted in step #1 because the SYSDATE value used was 11:59 AM which is BEFORE this jobs time range.
You have one or ANY NUMBER of records that ARE NEVER PULLED!
That is why people don't (or shouldn't) use DATE/TIMESTAMP values for pulling data. If you only pull data once per day (e.g. after midnight to get 'yesterdays' data) then the only data you will miss is for data where the transaction began before midnight but the commit happened after midnight. Some environments have no, or very little, activity at that time of night and so may never have a 'missing data' problem.
Creating your tables with ROW DEPENDENCIES will store an SCN at the row level (at a cost of about 6 bytes per row) and you can use the commit SCN to pull data.
Just another caveat though - either of those approaches will still NEVER detect rows that have been deleted. So if you need those you need yet a different approach such as using a materialized view log that captures ALL changes.

Query Execution/Elapsed Time and Oracle Data Blocks

Hi,
I have created 3 tables with one column only. As an example Table 1 below:
SQL> create table T1 ( x char(2000));
So 3 tables are created in this way i.e. T1,T2 and T3.
T1 = in the default database tablespace of 8k (11g v11.1.0.6.0 - Production) (O.S=Windows).
T2 = I created in a Tablespace with Blocksize 16k.
T3 = I created in a Tablespace with Blocksize 4k. In the same Instance.
Each table has approx. 500 rows (So, table sizes are same in all the cases to test Query execution time ). As these 3 tables are created under different data block sizes so the ALLOCATED no. of data blocks are different in all cases.
T1 = 8k = 256 Blocks = 00:00:04.76 (query execution time/elapsed time)
T2 = 16k=121 Blocks = 00:00:04.64
T3 = 4k = 490 Blocks = 00:00:04.91
Table Access is FULL i.e. I have used select * from table_name; in all 3 cases. No Index nothing.
My Question is why query execution time is nearly the same in all 3 cases because Oracle has to read all the data blocks in each case to fetch the records and there is a much difference in the allocated no. of blocks ???
In 4k block size example, Oracle has to read just 121 blocks and it's taking nearly the same time as it's taking to read 490 blocks???
This is just 1 example of different data blocks. I have around 40 tables in each block size tablespace and the result are nearly the same. It's very strange for me because there is a much difference in the no. of allocated blocks but execution time is almost the same, only difference in milliseconds.
I'll highly appreciate the expert opinions.
Bundle of thanks in advance.
Best Regards,

Hi Chris,
No I'm not using separate databases, it's 8k database with non-standard blocksizes of 16k and 4k.
Actually I wanted to test the Elapsed time of these 3 tables, so for that I tried to create the same size
tables.
And how I equalize these is like I have created one column table with char(2000).
555 MB is the figure I wanted to use for these 3 tables ( no special figure, just to make it bigger than the
RAM used for my db at the db startup to be sure of not retrieving the records from cache).
so row size with overhead is 2006 * 290,000 rows = 581740000(bytes) / 1024 = 568105KB / 1024 = 555MB.
Through this math calculation I thought It will be the total table size. So I Created the same no. of rows in 3 blocksizes.
If it's wrong then what a mes because I was calculating tables sizes in the same way from the last few months.
Can you please explain a little how you found out the tables sizes in different block sizes.Though I understood how you
calculated size in MB from these 3 block sizes
T8K =97177 BLOCKS=759MB *( 97177*8 = 777416KB / 1024 = 759MB )*
T16K=41639 BLOCKS=650MB
BT4K=293656 BLOCKS=1147MB
For me it's new to calculate the size of a table. Can you please tell me then how many rows I can create in each of
these 3 tables to make them equal in MB to test for elapsed time.
Then I'll again run my test and put the results here. Because If I've wrongly calculated table sizes then there is no need to talk about elapsed time. First I must equalize the table sizes properly.
SQL> select sum(bytes)/1024/1024 "Size in MB" from dba_segments> 2 where segment_name = 'T16K';
Size in MB
655
Is above SQL is correct to calculate the size or is it the correct alternative way to your method of calculating the size??
I created the same table again with everything same and the result is :
SQL> select num_rows,blocks from user_tables where table_name = 'T16K';NUM_ROWS BLOCKS
290000 41703
64 more blocks are allocated this time so may be that's y it's showing total size of 655 instead of 650.
Thanks alot for your help.
Best Regards,
KAm

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
