Using iPhone for better geotagging.

Postby MikesTooLz » Mon Dec 07, 2009 2:06 pm

How about Eye-Fi to iphone app communication over wifi network for obtaining geotaging info. I know that the iphone app cant connect to the eye-fi via adhoc. I'm talking about connecting both eye-fi and iphone to a wifi network and they having both of them communicate.


Example:
#1 I have an iphone but cant upload via adhoc to it from the eye-fi
#2 I have a verizon MiFi that I carry around. It lets me upload from anywhere, but no geotaging since it dosnt know its current location.

Solution - Both iphone app and eye-fi card connect to my MiFi network. Eye-Fi card requests GPS location from iphone and then does the upload.



I know that not everyone has a mifi they cary arround, but im sure there are a lot of people with iphones who would like to use its GPS for better geotagging accuracy.

Love this idea. Also why not the eyefi manager? it would be great to adjust the setting of the eyefi from the phone when you are at home or work networks.
