When importing photos from the Wizard, MaxSea will look for any GPS tag information that are
embedded in the EXIF metadata when using a Digital Camera with a GPS. If no GPS tag is available,
MaxSea will look at the date/time tag (available with most of Digital Cameras) and try to cross
reference it with the track information.
This will allow MaxSea to position automatically the pictures on the Chart (geo-tagging).
Note: If MaxSea was not able to geo-tagg the picture (either by GPS or Date/Time tag), you will have to
manually import the pictures
