Use your iPhone to import GPS data for images from another camera.
4.
Select the photo or photos that have the GPS information you need, and click OK.
Aperture adds each of the GPS points to the map.
5.
To assign photos to the points, select one or more images and drag them to the
desired point.
You must actually attach the iPhone. You can't download iPhone pictures and then
try to retrieve the GPS information directly from them to apply to other photos. If the
iPhone isn't available, create a new location using the images from the iPhone and
then drag the other images to that location.
Caution
Assigning locations using GPS receivers
If your camera doesn't support GPS but you have a separate GPS unit, use the GPS unit to record
your locations while you're out shooting. It's helpful to make certain that the time setting in your
camera matches the time settings on the GPS unit because Aperture can use the time information
to determine which photos should be assigned to which locations. Otherwise, you'll need to man-
ually assign images to the various locations. After you download your images into a project and
the GPS tracks from the GPS unit, you need to import the GPS track file into Aperture.
Some GPS receivers allow you to download the GPS tracks directly, while others
require that you use third-party software such as Garmin Training Center, Rubitrack,
and so forth, to download the files to the computer first.
