Capturing geo-data incl. actual address has never
been so simple!
Mount the JOBO photoGPS on your camera’s hot-shoe and capture the
geo-data of each picture by the click of your camera. The photoGPS
is immediately ready for use – it captures the corresponding geo-data
in less than one second! Moreover, it has a long battery life of sever-
al weeks due to particularly low power consumption.
Coordinate the geo-data and your pictures on the PC or laptop, using
the supplied software. In addition to the longitude and latitude, the
address – i.e. country, city, street and closest point of interest – is
captured in the image file. This enables you to search for specific
places, streets or POI without having to tag each picture individually.
Software is also included to organise, find and sort pictures.
