PixGPS

PixGPS in its latest version, 1.1.8, is a robust tool for photo enthusiasts needing precise geolocation data. Developed by BR Software, this program can be categorized under Photo & Graphics with a subcategory of Viewers & Editors. Users can easily download PixGPS.EXE, which has a compact file size of 3.4 MB. The program supports Windows XP, 7, 8, 10, and 11, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of operating systems. Previous versions, like 1.1, and 1.0, laid the groundwork for this latest update.

To take full advantage of PixGPS, a user needs a GPS receiver. Once the GPS is activated during a photo shoot, the program simplifies the process of geotagging images. Post-photo session, users can quickly download their pictures from the camera and the track file from the GPS. PixGPS then computes the exact location for each image, embedding this data within the EXIF metadata. This feature helps those who need to track the exact position where their photos were taken.

Beyond internal data tagging, PixGPS offers versatile export options. Users can view the photo locations on a map, or effortlessly export a list of locations to Google Earth. Additionally, it allows for exporting positions to a text file, making the data easily compatible with other software such as mapping systems and databases.

Pros:

• Easy and intuitive process for geotagging photos.
• Lightweight file size at just 3.4 MB.
• High compatibility with various Windows OS versions.
• Ability to export positions to multiple formats (e.g., Google Earth, text files).
