Adding the geographical position to your photos
Turn on geotagging to add the approximate geographical location (a geotag) to
photos when you take them. The geographical location is determined either by
wireless networks (mobile or Wi-Fi® networks) or GPS technology.
When appears on the camera screen, geotagging is turned on but the
geographical position has not been found. When appears, geotagging is turned on
and the geographical location is available, so your photo can get geotagged. When
neither of these two symbols appears, geotagging is turned off.
