Product Description:

HoudahGeo is a one-stop geocoding application for the Mac. With HoudahGeo you may "pin" photos to the locations where they were taken. The thus created information may be exported to EXIF tags as well as to Google Earth KML files. Such a file allows for browsing your photos within Google Earth.

  • You don't need a digital camera with a built-in GPS
  • You don't need a GPS device

Don't miss out on these cool features:

  • Automatic geocoding from a GPX or NMEA (Sony) track logs
  • GPX download from Garmin, Wintec and Magellan GPS devices
  • Manual geocoding from GPX way points
  • Manual geocoding using Google Earth & Google Maps
  • Reverse geocoding
  • Google Earth export
  • Flickr uploading
  • EXIF/XMP image file tagging

What's new in this version:

New feature: Improved Flickr export
There is now an option to disable machine tags when uploading to Flickr.

Enhancement: Improved Google Earth Geocoding
Google Earth geocoding now tries to preserve zoom level, heading and tilt when flying to a new location. Hint: Adjust the "fly to" speed in Google Earth preferences for faster relocation.

Enhancement: Improved Google Earth Geocoding
When selecting an already geocoded image, Google Earth automatically flies to the location of that picture. Note: This feature requires Google Earth 4.3 beta.

Bug fix: Time zone abbreviations
Specifying camera time zone by abbreviation or GMT offset did not work. GMT time zone was used. This is now fixed.

I don't have a GPS camera. I've found that HoudahGeo is the easiest way to geocode photos. I run them through GeoHoudah before uploading to Flickr. HoudahGeo uploads to Flickr, but I use iPhoto and prefer FlickrExport because it sends my descriptions, titles, and keywords from iPhoto.

This is the best Geocoding program currently available. HoudahGeo works well and is easy to use.

I use it with a Garmin 60Cx, LoadMyTracks either a Canon SD700is or a Canon 20D, and Google Earth.
