Nokia Photo Map plugin for N9 adds Maps to Gallery view

   

 

Over on Nokia Betalabs, they released a very cool new plug-in for the MeeGo powered Nokia N9, that adds a Map View in the Gallery.

This experimental plugin spices up your Nokia N9 Gallery experience by bringing a map view to it. When viewing photos in Gallery, you can:

  • Open a map view directly from a Gallery photo (perform a long press or select menu icon -> Select the plugin from menu)
  • Browse the map in the map view
  • View your other photos when staying in the map view
  • Edit the location and orientation of your photos, if needed
  • Place and orient on the map those photos not having enough metadata
  • Go back from the map view directly to Gallery

 

Uses for the plugin:

  • Where was this photo taken at, again?
  • While viewing and sharing travel photos, quickly check a photo’s location from a map.
  • See where a photo shared by a friend has been taken at. If metadata exists in EXIF.
  • Edit the location & orientation metadata in EXIF of your photos, easily.

Nokia Photo Map Plug-in for the Nokia N9 is available over on Nokia BetaLabs (Sign-in Required).
