Version: (using KDE 3.5.9) OS: Linux Installed from: Mandriva RPMs what is a good gui for geotagging ? what is my problem ? i have old stills of a bike trekking along the "canal des deux mers" (from Bordeaux to Sète, composed of canal de Garonne and canal du midi) i want to geolocalize my about 300 stills i want to geolocalize one stills about a particular lock and one still which follows immediately in time and which is a little canal bridge (a bridge for the canal running over a road or a river) what are my data ? my memory of this 2003 trekking the name of the lock in the picture, writed on the lock house :"Ecluse de l'Avance" then 1. i launch my exlorer -> tab 1 i google search "canal de garonne" great, there is a wikipedia item "liste des écluses du canal de Garonne" 2. i open the wikipedia article -> second tab 2 great , i know the order of the locks along the canal and the distance betwween two locks 3. i google search a tourist document i found a map with the geolocation of the locks and its number(each locks ahs a number) -> tab 3 4. i open "geotag" software i ask for it to show on map my 2 stills with map and satellite views -> tab 4 i locate the lock with tab 3 and tab 4 now i must locate the canal bridge still i know (tab 2) there is a distance of about 600 m (pk 165.927, pk 165.300) between the lock and the canal bridge i know the canal bridge runs over a little river i see there is two rivers not too far the lock in geotag map (tab 4) 5. i open maps.google.fr -> tab 5 i go to "my maps" i activate the "distance measurement tool" i found this is the second little river which is at 600 m i located the canal bridge still 6. during my work i do more than geotagging : i designed a good tool and gui for geotagging one window several tabs, each one for a compnent-tool perhaps it would be better to have in one window tool : google maps "distance measurement tool" map view satellite view pointer and thumbnail of the stills ability to record in the stills the coordinates alt,long,lat ability to find and record location name,city, region,country name see the captured images fo my gui tab1, tab2, tab3, tab4, tab4bis, tab5

addendum please stop using konqueror konqueror for many years has javascript compliance problems give the choice to the user to use FF or use webkit
Philippe, This is a flameware : please stop using konqueror. konqueror for many years has javascript compliance problems give the choice to the user to use FF or use webkit => KHTML is used, not Konqueror has well => using FireFox : impossible and it's not too powerfull than KHTML from C++ interface viewpoint. ==> Webkit is a simplified KHTML implementation packaged by Qt4... Perhaps later KHTML will use WebKit has well, like developement is supported by Qt4. So for the moment, we wait and see. For the rest of your proposal, your workflow sound like very complex, and long, to just geotag your images. Synchronize a gps tracklist with images sound definitively more simple...

1. its not a flameware i like konqueror but several times a day i must use FF i would say FF is realistic it faces the compliance pb konqueror is idealistic it wants to change the reality but i can't wait for the reality is changed this is today i need an explorer which works 2. i said "give the choice" 3. you read my post too fast i know geottager or geologger i have one i use it but i have OLD stills yes it is complex to geotag old stills but it is not my workflow which is complex
Philippe, This file still valid using kipi-plugins 2.4 where GUI have been rewritten indeep by Michael ? Gilles Caulier
Many things of this have been implemented in 2.x: You can now display the image you are currently tagging and modify its location data, you can have two map views side-by-side (for example, one Google satellite, one OSM). For distance measurement, you can right now use only the one from Marble. What I think we could still later add from Philippe's list is a distance measurement tool for the Google Maps part. About adding tags, this could maybe added to the reverse geotagging system. Michael
