Thanks.  That is a very good question.  I often have a camera with me that I 
sometimes use for that purpose but don’t find it very accurate related to GPS 
activities.  I’m no expert iPad user but I see nothing in it that would 
indicate Lat and Long for photos taken with it.



I’ll call the Apple store.



Thanks.



Al

Al,

Check to see if when you take a picture, is the Lat and Long stored within the 
picture details?

As many of you do while searching family history, I identify many types of 
physical locations in my Legacy file, i. e. old homesteads, mills, gravestones, 
battle locations, old property corners, ghost towns, etc.



I now carry my cell-linked iPad with me constantly and am interested in what 
the group uses as an accurate app (free or for cost) for this purpose.  I want 
to climb into remote hills and read my exact location by coordinates.  I 
stumbled onto a small cemetery with a few stone in the mountains this summer 
with no trails or roadbeds nearby.  I did later contact the county and 
described the location as well as I could.  They eventually found it and said 
they did not know it existed.



Secondly, which of the group of coordinates formats does the group believe is 
the most useful or is it a matter of taste?



Thanks.     Al
