Photo & GPS synchronization

Posted by Jesus on October 27, 2010 at 2:35am

Hello!

I´m looking for a simple way to synchronize the GPS logger and the camera. I´ve read about synchronize the camera clock with the GPS clock but I think, that this is very tiresome, because toy have to syncro all every fly.

Thanks

Jesús

The simpliest way to do would probably to take a picture of a live output of your GPS data clock before take off. Then you find in exif data all the necessary informations.

Or just use a camera with its own GPS

Trigger the camera with waypoint events. If you know the first picture is the first waypoint its not hard to figure. If your camera is downward shooting the center of the picture will be your waypoint too so you could map it in GE to.
