A. Displaying Received Location Data on Satellite Map Servers

Received GPS location data can be displayed on Locr, Google Earth and most satellite navigation maps

A. 1 What is geo-tagging?

Geo-tagging is the process of adding geographical identification meta data to various media such as websites, RSS feeds or images and is a form of geo-spatial meta data. This data usually consists of latitude and longitude coordinates, though it can also include altitude, bearing and place names.

A. 2 Downloading Locr software to geo-tag photos

With the free locr software, you are able to geo-tag and upload photos automatically anywhere in the world. Please visit the below URL to download the free Locr software.
