Geotagging with the digital camera; [Geotagging mit der Digitalkamera]

Abstract

This article examines geotagging with digital cameras. Geotagging associates photographs with geographic coordinates, allowing images to be organised and viewed according to where they were captured. Location information can improve documentation for field surveys, travel, environmental observation and asset inspection. Its reliability depends on positioning accuracy, correct metadata handling and consistent workflows for transferring images. When combined with GIS, geotagged photographs can provide visual context for spatial records and help users revisit observations. The topic highlights a simple connection between photography and geographic information, while underlining the need to manage location metadata carefully.
