PRESS RELEASE: iMarkMySpot - Digital Photo Geotagging App for the iPhone Now Available on iTunes


MISSOULA, Mont., Sept. 8 /PRNewswire/ -- iCloseBy.com has announced the release of iMarkMySpot(TM), a new App for the Apple iPhone(TM)  which is used to  "one-touch" Geotag and Geocode digital photos with exact GPS locations.

The latest iPhone App from iCloseBy.com, iMarkMySpot uses the built in GPS functionality of the Apple iPhone to store exact waypoint locations with one-touch simplicity.  Stored waypoint locations can then be emailed to any address as a standard GPX-formatted file, compatible with many photography and mapping software packages. Using the time stamps from the photos and the time stamp of the stored waypoints, digital photos are then easily Geocoded and Geotagged.

Using iMarkMySpot in conjunction with digital cameras of any brand, including any digital camera by Canon, Nikon, Sony, Kodak, Fujifilm or any other manufacturer, the exact location of where a photograph is taken is stored in standard GPS / GPX waypoint files.  After digital photos have been uploaded to a PC, they can then be  automatically merged, by using many available photo management software packages, with the GPX waypoint files created by iMarkMySpot.

iMarkMySpot can also be used without a camera as a stand-alone location coordinate data logger. With iMarkMySpot, any iPhone user can store their GPS locations, along with descriptions, as a travel log. These waypoints can then be emailed and used with any GPX compatible mapping software, including Google Earth, EasyGPS, GPSBable, RoboGEO and many other top reviewed Geocaching and GPS mapping software packages.

Part of the integrated iCloseBy.com family products, which now includes iMarkMySpot, iDialUDrive, and iCloseby-iFob, iMarkMySpot for the Apple iPhone includes the following features:

  • True GPX file format compatibility.

  • Email waypoint lists directly from the iPhone to any email account.

  • Stores date and time of each waypoint.

  • Allows easy naming of waypoints as they are stored.

  • Displays a Google map of stored waypoints, directly on the iPhone.

  • Ultra low cost and simple to use.
