Sellgino 'GPS Photo Tour' - The USB-friendly Geotagger

  May 29th, 2008



WE RECOMMEND

Looking to geotag your photos? Unless you're a big photography nut and really big into travelling, we can't imagine that you would be, but for that really specific target market, a Korean company called Sellgino Telecom is trying to bridge the gap between the need and the still upcoming general support in cameras with the GS-200 GPS Photo Tour, a handheld device that uses GPS to log your movements. Software on your computer and a USB connection download that log and compare it with EXIF embedded in your photos to find date and time matches, creating a photo record that you can then import into your favorite mapping program.

Perhaps in an effort to make the whole device a little more appealing for the price, the GPS Photo Tour doubles as a VoIP phone and allows you to use any left-over storage space to act as a rough-and-tumble flash drive. Frankly, we wouldn't mind applying the information retroactively to some of our old vacation photos…
