Geotagging and Flickr

If you know me, you know I love photos and maps. I’ve found a great way to mash the two together (almost) automatically.

Here’s how it works:
Most new GPS units create a trail of tracks as you move (I have on one my handlebars ).
Once you get back (or at least take a break from) your adventure, you can download the tracks to the computer and sync them with the photos you’ve taken along the way.
The photo-sharing site Flickr can take the location information from each photo and place it on a Yahoo! map. (You have to tell it to use this information Geo Preferences).

If you’re interested in doing this yourself, GPS Passion has a guide

GPSPhotoLinker is the OS X program I use for linking .gpx tracks and photos.
