Click here to buy

Incorporating images from supported Nikon digital cameras with your GIS workflow application has become a lot simpler. With the FotoMapr-C, you can now capture geo-coded images and integrate them easily with your mapping application. The FotoMapr-C instantly transmits the exact location and direction over a cable connection and embeds them with the image each time you take a picture, unlike any other geo-tagging attachments. Additionally, with the new “Memo Tag” feature, you can tag memos to your images off-line along with the standard GPS information

FotoMapr-C is easy to use and recharges through a standard USB port. FotoMapr supports external antennas and has enough memory to store “Track Logs” along with the geo-coded images. FotoMapr works with leading software such as GPSPhotoLink, WindImage,  FoxView, Geo Fotos Mapper and MySnapMap software to organize and process your geo-coded images.

FotoMapr-C100 has two models FotoSpot-C101 and FotoSpot-C102 which work with select Nikon cameras.

Geo-tagging pictures involves storing the latitude/longitude and/or directional information within the header (also known as EXIF) of the image file. The process of geo-tagging can be done in real-time inside the camera using the FotoMapr-C100. In some cases, the geo-tagging process has to be performed off-line in a PC with the help of custom software.
