Apparatus with displaying, browsing and navigating functions for photo track log and method thereof
First Claim
1. An apparatus with photo track log displaying, browsing, and navigating functions, comprisinga GPS (global positioning system) module, used to receive at least one positioning signal from a satellite;
- an electronic map module, having a plurality of electronic maps;
a storage module, used to store at least one geo-tagged photo and GPS track log;
a display module; and
a processor, connected to the GPS module, the electronic map module, the storage module and the display module, wherein the processor combines the electronic maps, the GPS track log, and the geo-tagged photo to form a photo track log which is displayed on the display module for navigation.

5. A method of photo track log displaying, browsing, and navigating, comprising steps of
selecting a GPS track log in the storage module; -
providing a processor, wherein the processor searches an electronic map covering all positioning points according to the longitude and altitude data positioning points in the GPS track log; displaying the electronic map on the display module; displaying the positioning points of the GPS track log and linking those points to form a GPS track line; the processor searching longitude and altitude data matching one or more geo-tagged photos;
if the longitude and altitude data of the digital photo match the longitude and altitude data at any point on the GPS track line, then photo track marks are put at that point to form a photo track log;selecting one or more photo track marks as destinations for navigation; retrieving longitude and altitude data correlating to where the user locates by using GPS module; and guiding the user to reach where he or she picked via audio or graphic way according to the obtained longitude and altitude data. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8, 9)
