HACK
The art of georeferencing hypermedia and publishing it to
the Web continues to be a fast-changing and complex field
of activity. In addition to the experimental scripts described
in this hack, we have begun work on a project known as the
Locative Media Toolkit that will bring together the tasks of
downloading GPS traces, rectifying base maps, georeferenc-
ing digital media against GPS tracks using timestamps, anno-
tating locations with text and other information, and then
finally publishing to the Internet in various human-interac-
tive and machine-readable formats, all under one neat Open
Source GUI application designed to run interchangeably on
Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. Can it be done? Find out
more about the Locative Media Toolkit at http://
