Automatically — If your camera or smartphone has a GPS, it automatically records the latitude and longitude of each photo you take, and the information is imported with the photo.
•
Manually — You can add location information manually in Map mode by searching for a specific location or choosing a location interactively on the map.
•
By copying location info from other photos — You can copy and paste location information from one photo to another. This is useful, for example, if you use your smartphone to take a photo and then copy the location information to multiple photos taken with your camera at the same location.
•
From Facebook check-in points — If you use the Facebook check-in function, you can match your check-in locations to your photos.
•
From a GPS device — If your camera does not record location data, you can use a separate GPS device or a smartphone app, synchronized with your camera time zone, to keep track of the latitude and longitude as you travel and take photos. Then, you can import the data from the GPS device by importing a KML file. KML is a standard format for storing geographic data that can be displayed in Google Maps and other applications.
Navigation palette — Tagged photos are organized by location in the Places folder, following the hierarchy of country, district, city, and road. Photos that contain location information that cannot be matched to the map are listed in the Unknown Places folder. You can tag these photos either manually or by importing and matching location data. After the photos are tagged, they are moved to a folder that corresponds to their location.
•
Info palette — Location information appears under the Places tab. Location markers can be viewed on a map, and the names of the corresponding locations are listed in the Location box below. The Info palette also displays editable latitude and longitude information.
Privacy Note: Sharing sites use different methods to disable location information — some sites delete the information, some sites hide the information (but it’s still there). You can use Corel PaintShop Pro to delete location information before you upload photos that may have home, school, or work locations that you don’t want to make public.
Drag the Zoom slider up or down. Higher zoom levels reveal greater map detail, as well as any additional location markers that may have been grouped together as a single marker at lower zoom levels.
