Location Data
D
Cautions: Location Data
•
Turning the camera off does not disable the location data function. The
location data function can be disabled by selecting [OFF] for [Location
data (built-in)]> [Record location data] in the setup menu.
•
The location data recorded with videos are those reported at the start of
recording.
•
The camera may in certain cases need additional time to acquire location
data, for example immediately after the battery is inserted, when the
location data function is enabled for the first time, or after an extended
period of disuse.
•
The positions of navigation satellites change constantly. This may slow or
prevent the acquisition of location data in some locations or at certain
hours of the day.
•
Satellite signals may be blocked or reflected in the locations listed below,
rendering the data acquired less accurate or preventing its acquisition
altogether.
- In buildings or under ground
- Between tall buildings
-Under bridges
- In tunnels
- Near power lines or similar structures
- In dense forest
- In metal briefcases or other containers
•
The presence of cellular telephones or other devices that produce strong
electromagnetic fields or transmit on frequencies close to those of
navigation satellites may interfere with the acquisition of location data.
•
Where the error in the signal from the satellite is very large, the location
reported by the camera may differ from its actual location by up to several
hundred meters.
•
Due to variability in the precision of the location data acquired, differences
between geodetic systems, and other factors, the location data embedded
in pictures may differ from the location in which they were actually
recorded.
