The PlayMemories app from Sony offers a "Map view" of the GPS data captured by the camera. This is done by selecting "Tools", "Map view", and then dragging a video or photo containing GPS data into a box indicated by the app. This results in a static view of the GPS location data overlayed on a map and/or satellite photo.
Another option for viewing the GPS data captured with video is within PlayMemories using the "Multi view" option. This is done by selecting "Tools", "Edit Media Files", "Create Multi view", and then dragging a video containing GPS data into the box indicated by the app. This generates another video file with the date, time, speed information, and an animated breadcrumb trail overlayed onto the video.
A third option is to view the captured GPS data in a third party map viewer. This involves first converting the NMEA sentences log file, described in my first post, into a GPX (GPS Exchange) file using a Windows app called "NMEA2KMZ" for example. The GPX file format is a widely used file format for exchanging GPS data.
A web search on "GPX viewer" returns a whole lot of viewers including Google Earth for viewing the GPX file.
I'm trying to create multiview (with GPS overlay) on new Sony AS100V and it says the format isn't supported.... any ideas?
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately I have no experience with the AS100V. Perhaps the Playmemories software needs to be updated ??
