1. Decide on a time zone you will use over the course of the
project. Typically this is either your home time zone or a
time zone you travel to.
2. Set your GPS device to display time in the chosen time
zone.
3. Start setting the time on your digital camera.
4a. If your camera allows for setting seconds to zero, do so
when the clock on the GPS device jumps to the next minute.
4b. Otherwise set the time on the camera to the next full
minute. Save the newly set time at the very moment actual
time on the GPS device catches up.
In order to be able to geocode images from a GPS track log,
it is important that the camera clock is accurate. It is even
more important that the camera clock is not modified over the
course of a project.
Once you start working within HoudahGeo, you should check the
camera's clock against the GPS clock. You can now specify the
exact clock error.
