PhotoLocator 2024.8.26.0

Photo file management

Freeware for Windows 10/11

Note that if PhotoLocator cannot start, you need to install the latest .NET 8 Desktop Runtime.

Description

PhotoLocator can import GPS traces from GPX and KML files and then apply the GPS positions to photo files by synchronizing with the photo timestamps. GPS tags can also be imported from other already geotagged photos. The locations can either be set automatically based on timestamps or manually by copy/pasting from other files or selecting on the map. PhotoLocator can perfom a lossless update of the EXIF data in the target files directly or in copies of the files.
KML files can be obtained directly from the Google maps location history. GPX files can be exported by many location and sports tracking apps.

Star trails made by stacking frames from a time lapse video using Generate Max frame

Long exposure image generated by combing an average and a max frame from a stabilized (enable Register frames in the Video transform dialog) 10 sec drone video recording. The two images were tonemapped using the Local contrast, brightness and colors feature, saved to jpg and then combined by using Generate Max frame.
