Using Location Data Functions/Displaying Maps
C Points of Interest (POI) Information
POI information is location name information for
the nearest landmarks (facilities) and other
details.
• When Display POI in Points of interest
(POI) (A113) in the location data options
menu is set to On, the nearest location name
information for the current position is
displayed during shooting (only when the
camera is positioning).
• When Embed POI is set to On, location name
information can be recorded on the image
during shooting (only when the camera is positioning).
• If the location name information was recorded on the image during shooting, this
information is displayed when Display POI is set to On during playback.
• The location name information may not be displayed depending on the setting
level in Level of detail in Points of interest (POI). Also, certain landmark names
may not be registered, or the landmark name may be different.
C Underwater Recording of Location Data
The screen on the right is displayed if you select
Underwater scene mode or select x (scene auto
selector) mode and then submerge the camera
underwater while location data is being calculated.
If you select Yes and press the k button, the
location data calculated prior to underwater
shooting is recorded to the images to be shot
underwater.
C Images with Recorded Location Data
• The z icon is displayed during playback for images which have the location data
recorded (A5).
• The location data recorded on an image can be checked on a map with ViewNX 2
after transferring the image to a computer (A157).
• The actual shooting location may differ from the location data recorded to the
image files due to the accuracy of the calculated location data and differences in
the geodetic system used.
• The location data and POI information recorded on images can be erased using
Erase location data in Location data options (A110). The erased information
cannot be recovered.
