It’s not a secret that the track becomes more exciting with picturesque photos geotagged and places of interest marked as a waypoints. The descriptions of geotagged photos used to be edit just directly in Picasa or FlickR photo albums before. The same with waypoint descriptions which were edited just when the waypoints are created. When the track is completed, a process of changing photos and waypoints descriptions was very complicated.

But now you can absolutely forget about that. You can edit photo and waypoint descriptions easily now directly at your track’s page. Also, you can delete any waypoint if necessary. To change photo or waypoint description you have to sign in your GPSed account first.

Put your mouse over the uploaded picture or waypoint on the track page and find “Edit” button next to it.

Сlick on “Edit” and write a new description for your photo or waypoint. Do not forget to press on “Save” button. The process is easy and your photos descriptions could be edited any time you like. This will make your tracks more informative and exciting.

Please note: photo description will be changed only for GPSed website (not for Picasa or FlickR).

Have some suggestions for us? We love your feedback!

Yours sincerely,

Recently appeared a good thing on GPSed.com which allows everyone who plans a business trip or vacation to calculate the distance to the destination point. It works simple and accurate.

For example you plan your trip from Paris to London through several interesting locations. All you need is just to go to GPSed.com, click the map and scale it to good level of visibility.

Then click the small button with ruler on it, left to search.

Now point to initial location which is Paris in our case, then to the next waypoint you want and so on to the final destination - London.

Right below the ruler button and search you see the distance of this route and as you see at the screenshot, it took us nearly 425 km in total to get to London this way.

Pretty interesting thing, that makes GPSed.com even more interesting and useful.

Try to make your routes anyway, anywhere!

 

Yours sincerely,

GPSed Team
