Summary0000780: Semiautomatic GPSImgDirection from track
DescriptionI suggest to include a new entry in the Image Direction Automatic Assignment:

Semiautomatic GPSImgDirection from track:

Write the GPSImgDirection of a picture, taking the course value from the trkpt you take lon and lat.
Additional InformationJustification:
In my hikes, my Garmin Oregon 300 records the track.

I use to take the 80% of my pictures in de direction in which I walk. For the other 20% of the pictures I use to walk several steep in the direction that I will take the picture. In some cases, I modify some of the the GPSImgDirection with GeoSetter.

I am using GPSBabel and a XSL programs to produce the results that you can see here:

At the other hand: during my skiing vacation i normaly stop skiing, turn at least 90 degrees and take a photo. In that case your proposed automatic always delivers wrong directions.

For that reason I said Semiautomatic and not Automatic. For the cases that you said, I use GeoSetter to manualy modify the direction (10 % of the cases) because I use to take de pictures to mainly documeny the direcction of my hikes. If you behaviour is always turn 90 degrees and take a photo, add a value as a parameter to add or substract at the course angle.

 Please read the Additional Information that I include in my request and see some examples in my web (http://www.tic2.org/Ignacio/Viajes/Viajes2011/Viajes-2011.htm [^]):
