If you have several favorite locations you visit most often, you can keep them in your Saved Locations list. You will find Location filters at the very top of the map window and several Google Maps related setting at the bottom of it. If you click on the mark, you will be able to preview photographs taken there. These show which and how many photographs have been taken at that specific location. Done! Now, go on and do that with the rest of your photographs.Ī side note: As you geotag your photos you will notice marks appear on the map. Alternatively, you can enter the information manually in the Metadata tab.
Step 6: geotag! To do that, right-click anywhere on the map (presumably where you took the photographs) and choose “Add GPS Coordinates to Selected Photos”. You may alternatively use the Search field at the top right corner of the map window, right next to map filters, to quickly specify your location. You will find a Navigator at the left-side panel. Scroll your mouse wheel to zoom in or out, click and drag to move across the map. Step 5: find the place! It will be very easy using Google Maps within Lightroom. Of course, you will need to geotag photographs taken at different locations separately, but if you’ve taken several at one location, it’s ok to select them all at once. Step 4: select photographs you wish to geotag at a specific location. This metadata selection will show you the most details on your Location. Step 3: make sure you have selected Location from the drop-down menu in the Metadata tab, as shown in the image. Step 2: once you’ve found photographs to be geotagged, go to your Map module as shown in the image above.
It is worth noting that Lightroom uses one of the best online maps available – Google Maps. It is also a very quick and simple process, so why not? In a year or two you may be glad you geotagged your photographs to know where to look for those locations. However, if you don’t find yourself needing the feature more often than occasionally, Lightroom is about to save you a couple of hundred dollars. No need if you have a camera with built-in geotagging feature. If you own a camera without such a feature, geotagging can be made possible with an external GPS unit, such as GP-1 unit for Nikon DSLR cameras (see our Nikon GP-1 Review). Many modern smartphones and cameras with GPS and Wi-Fi connectivity make geotagging a very simple and automated process. Ever felt like you were at an amazingly beautiful place for landscape photography but missed peak colors by a couple of weeks? Geotagging will let you remember your physical location, so that you can come back to the same spots next year. Simply put, geotagging images allows you to input location information within your image EXIF data so that you can know precisely where that particular image was taken.
