Product Description 

 

The  ATP  GPS  Photo  Finder  calculates,  records  GPS  position  data,  and  allows  you  to  precisely  track  the 

exact location and time of where your pictures were taken.    After setting your camera to the right time and 

date,  make  sure  that  the  Photo  Finder  is  activated  while  you’re  taking  pictures  with  your  digital  camera.   

After you finish taking pictures, simply insert your memory card into the Photo Finder (either via the card slot 

or via the USB port depending on format (see later in manual) and the GPS data will be synchronized and 

added  to  all  pictures  on  the  card.    Even  more  convenient  is  the  fact  that  this  is  all  performed  “on  the  go” 

without the need for a PC or software installation.     

The ATP GPS Photo Finder adds GPS tagging data to your pictures similarly to how your camera adds the 

time  and  date  data  when  your  picture  is  initially  taken.    Because  of  this,  using  the  Photo  Finder  on  your 

pictures won’t change compatibility of your photos with any of your existing photo software.     

Photos  GPS  tagged  by  the  ATP  GPS  Photo  Finder  can  be  used  with  any  geotagging  compatible  photo 

software. You can use any compatible software or photo sharing websites such as    “Flickr”, “Picasa2”, “Locr”, 

“ SmugMug”, “Panoramio”, “Google Earth”, or  “Google  Map”…etc. Your photos will be shown  on an online 

map, giving you a whole new way to organize, enjoy and share your pictures. The ATP GPS Photo Finder 

also allows for your route data to be exported to your memory card via Google ‘KML’ files.    These files can 

be opened in Google Earth and are essential ‘path files’ which will display the routes you travelled while the 

ATP  GPS  Photo  Finder  was  on.    This  way  you  can  share  not  only  your  geotagged  pictures,  but  also  the 

routes on which you took them!    More importantly, never forget where you took a picture again.     

You  can  also  use  your  GPS  tagged  photos  in  a  compatible  GPS  navigation  system,  allowing  for  features 

such as choosing your destination and landmarks visually.
