Recording Location Data
When [On] is selected for [Location
data (built-in)] > [Record location
data] in the camera setup menu, the
camera will record the current longi‑
tude, latitude, altitude, and time
(UTC, or Universal Coordinated
Time) with each new picture taken. The location can be
displayed on a map when the pictures are viewed in soft‑
ware such as ViewNX‑i. Note that the camera continues to
acquire location data even while o; to disable the loca‑
tion data feature, select [O] for [Record location data].
When the built‑in location data fea‑
ture is enabled, the strength of the
signal from the global navigation
satellite system (GNSS) providing
the location data can be gauged via
the o icon in the top control panel:
• A static o icon indicates that the camera is able to record
the current longitude, latitude, and altitude.
• A flashing o icon indicates that the camera is unable to
determine or record its current location. Wait for the icon
to stop ashing.
• If the o icon is not displayed, no signal has been received
for at least two seconds and location data will not be
updated until the signal is reacquired. The location data
last received before the signal was lost will however be
recorded with new pictures if available.
