Automatic Geotagging with “locr GPS Photo”

“locr” is a completely new way of organizing photographs using geographical information. Its many great
features include:

• The ability to find photos again much more easily, giving you a clear overview of your photograph

collection, regardless of its size!

• Automatic descriptions are generated for every photo based on geographical information.
• Photos can also be shared with friends and family.

locr is based on photographs with geotags. A geotag provides information about the position at which the
photo was taken. Geotags can either be defined manually or automatically via GPS.

Download and install

You can find “locrGPSPhoto110.exe” and the user manual file in CD-ROM.
