ACDSee 14 User Guide

Using the Map pane

The map pane allows you to add and view photo locations on the map. Use the map to select groups of files for further workflow

steps, and select photos for display in View mode.

The locations of files are displayed in the Map pane based on the latitude and longitude information in the file properties. If you have

a camera with geotagging capabilities, the geographic location is automatically conveyed visually on the map. You can also add map

coordinates to files by dragging them directly onto the map.

Geotagged images are indicated on the map with pins. You can click a pin on the map to select files within a geographic location for

viewing or processing. If your geotagged image pin is not displayed on the map, try using the keyboard shortcut F5 to refresh the

map.

The following file formats can be added to the map: JPG, TIFF, RAW, DNG, and PNG.

ACDSee Pro automatically adds file information, including geotags, to the database as you browse. However if you have a

large number of files you may want to catalog those files first to speed up the loading time for the pins on the map. To

catalog your files click Tools | Database | Catalog Files.

To open the Map pane:

In Manage mode, click View | Map (CTRL + SHIFT + M).

The Map pane appears above the File List pane in Manage mode by default. You can drag the Map title bar to a new location and

float the pane or dock it in another position like the other movable panes in ACDSee 14.

You can toggle the Map on and off with the keyboard shortcut CTRL+SHIFT+M in Manage mode.

To add files to the map by dragging:

1. In Manage mode, drag one or more files onto the map.

2. Click Save All in the top left corner of the map.

Ideally images should be geotagged prior to processing. If an image is geotagged after it has been edited and the Restore

to Original command is used, then the geotag will be lost.

To delete a pinned location on the map:

Right-click the geotagged image thumbnail and select Map | Remove from Map.

To view a geotagged image on the map:

Right-click the geotagged image thumbnail and select Map | View on Map.

To set default location, zoom and map type:

1. Pan to your preferred location on the map, then adjust the zoom-level and select your preferred map type (Map, Satellite, or

Terrain).

2. Click Tools | Map | Set default map location.

Note: The map reflects the current File list. If the File list has images mapped to a different location from your default

setting, then that location will be displayed.

To pan and zoom the map to a specific location, enter the location into the Map search field and press Enter.
