Handling Location Data

You can edit location data embedded in images while checking the shooting locations on the map. You can also use ViewNX-i to add new location data to images, even if your camera is not compatible with satellite navigation systems.
You can check the edited or added location data in [File & Camera Information] on the [Adjustments/Metadata] palette.
For details on [File & Camera Information], refer to "Viewing/Editing Embedded Information of Images".
Location data can be edited or added by loading the location log file output by a camera or mobile phone that is compatible with satellite navigation systems, or by a commercially available satellite navigation system receiver. For details, refer to "Using Location Logs".
Notes
  • Location data can be added and edited for still image files only (NEF, NRW, JPEG and TIFF formats).
  • If you use ViewNX-i to edit or add location data, the location data is saved based on the World Geodetic System (WGS84).
  • You can check which geodetic system is used in [File & Camera Information] on the [Adjustments/Metadata] palette. For details on [File & Camera Information], refer to "Viewing/Editing Embedded Information of Images".
When simultaneously recorded RAW (NEF or NRW format) and JPEG images are displayed as separate files with shown on the Toolbar
For details on conditions for file separation, refer to "Handling of the Images Recorded Simultaneously".
