KLUDGERIDER  I found this tool for the first time today and immediately tried it with my Gisteq GPS logger. It worked great! This is the first software I have found on the Mac that actually interfaces with the Gisteq GPS so I can download data tracks. Even Gisteq doesn't provide that.

The software took me about 3 minutes to be reading tracks off the logger.

If you have a Gisteq device and use Macs. I highly recommend this!

KSCHLOBYNSKI  I actually like this software.

Only one thing you should know: I was used to droppping photos onto a similar tool, then adding the gpx tracks, and done.

But in myTracks, as the focus is on organizing the gpx tracks, you first need to add the tracks, and only then drop photos into it.

That was a tad confusing at first...

And remember to ask myTracks to write the geotags back into the files!

DRDUL  I use myTracks because it offers two features that I haven't found in any other app:

I can edit GPX tracks. I have started to use a GPS logger to geocode photos, but find that in the city with tall buildings all around, it sometimes"drifts" by 10 or 20 metres from my actual position. Rather not geocode a photo with an erroneous location, I can edit the track before geocoding. My only request is the ability to edit multiple points at once, rather than one-by-one.

I can determine where I was at a specific time, and I can determine what time I was at a specific point. And I can do this from the raw GPX data, without having to convert to KML and use Google Earth (which doesn't work as well as myTracks for this purpose, anyway). My only request (and it may be a limitation of Google Maps) is a higher zoom level so I can see more details.

DIRK STICHLING  Do you use a PowerPC Mac? Currently writing locations to EXIF tags only works on Intel Macs. But I am working on it.
