Explore photos in the Map View


Click the corresponding button in the bottom bar to access the map view. It provides a geographical overview of all photos in the database that have GPS coordinates associated with them, and is particularly useful for discovering photos from specific regions or trips.

Photos are displayed on the map as black circles, each indicating the number of photos in that region. As you zoom in, the circles are further subdivided, and the geographic distribution becomes increasingly detailed. If a circle contains only a single photo, it is displayed as a thumbnail directly within the circle.

If you click on a circle containing multiple photos, it is highlighted in blue, and a filmstrip appears at the bottom of the screen showing all photos associated with the selected area.


Note: The map view requires that GPS coordinates have been assigned to the photos. How to add or transfer GPS data to photos is described in the sections “GPS Data” and “Transfer GPS Data from One Photo to Another.”
