WIA-Loader can assign GPS positions from GPX files to images and embeds them into the images EXIF metadata. This is done by comparing the date and time of each picture to the date and time of each GPS position. If the difference lies beneath a certain threshold, the image will be 'geocoded'.
To activate geocoding, add a 'Geocoding' step to your import profile:
For a successful match it is important that the clocks of your camera and your GPS recorder were in sync when the image was taken. In case there is a discrepancy, you can adjust the GPS timestamps with WIA-Loader before you start the import.
When the geocoding is active, you'll be asked for GPX files before each import. At this point, you can specify multiple GPX files at once. WIA-Loader will use all of them to find a matching GPS position.
You can use the matching GPS data in further import-steps. WIA-Loader puts them into variables (see screenshot above for variable names) which can be used for file or folder names in your 'SaveAs' import-step for example.
