Importing and Working with GPS Track File Data
GPS track points are digital bread crumbs that are used to define a path or route (“track”)
using precise coordinates saved by a GPS device or GPS tracking iPhone application. If
you have a GPS-enabled camera or iPhone or another GPS device that you use to create
track files and save waypoints, you can import the track files into Aperture and work with
them in Places view. Each leg and waypoint is displayed in Places view, and you can assign
the legs and waypoints to photos. Photos taken with a GPS-enabled camera or iPhone
are automatically assigned locations corresponding to waypoints in the track file.
Importing GPS Track Files
To begin working with a GPS track file in Places view, you must first import the GPS track
file into Aperture.
To import a GPS track file
1 In the Library inspector, select the project into which you want to import the track file,
then click the Places button in the toolbar.
