Step 1 - Make track log

Configure the directory where you want write your track logs to. On the Neo "/media/card/tracks" is a good idea. Then turn on track logging in the "track" tab by pressing start.

Step 2 - Take photos

This is the easy part, walk or drive around and take a couple of photos...

Step 3 - Compare GPS time to camera time

Take a picture of the GPS time. You need this to synchronise your camera's clock with the GPS. Once back at home, open this photo i.e. in eog and check the EXIF data. Here you can see that the GPS time was 11:15:09 UTC and camera time in the moment of taking the photo 12:15:05. Thus now you now that there is one hour and five seconds difference. Note it down.

Step 4 - Make GPX file

You need to convert the tracklog to a GPX file. For this connect your Neo to your computer. Then

1. connect to your Neo and open the track directory

2. open your working directory, for example "josm_work"

3. copy the tracklogs to "josm_work"

4. open a xterm and change to "josm_work". Now execute:

convert2gpx.pl *.log > walking.gpx

This creates a new file "walking.gpx" which we will need in the next step.

Step 5 - Correlate your photos

- Connect your camera or your card reader with the photos to your computer.

- Fire up gpscorrelate-gui

Now:

1. Add your photos
2. Choose as GPS Data the file "walking.gpx" in the "josm_work" directory which you just created in Step 4.
3. Add the time offset that you got in Step 3
4. Click on Correlate!

Last Step

Copy / Import your photos with your favourite photo management program, i.e. f-spot.

Congratulations, you are done!
