[Jeff Russell]

Would love to hear what everyone is using to tag your photos while chasing?

Actually I just wrote about this subject in my blog a couple months ago. I have two good options reviewed there in one post. One is an iPhone app, the other a standalone device that you just throw up on the dash. Hope you find it informative.

Nikon has a nice camera attachment that will tag your location directly onto your photos... http://www.nikonusa.com/Nikon-Produ...sories/Miscellaneous/25396/GP-1-GPS-Unit.html I've been looking for something similar for my Canon...

A bit off topic (I may start another thread in a day or two) but I would like to geotag and reference video in this way but have it track and provide screen shots in a google sort of way on a map. Anyone have any suggestions on methods of doing this?

If you are using DeLorme or Streets and Maps, just make sure your sync'd on that to the time stamp on the camera...DONE.

Right, well I guess I kind of worded it wrong. We have a camera (not sure what type, I haven't used it) that displays the lat/long on the screen of the video. I want to take this video and create a map with either ArcGIS server or similar software that would be like street view on google. It is for a climate project in Africa. I just don't know a simple way to break it down and place it the map in a user friendly interactive way...
