Download Maperture Pro 1.2 (Aperture Plug-In)

Übermind has released a new version of its geotagging plug-in for Aperture 2, Maperture Pro. The plug-in adds a slew of new features, including support for importing Tracklog data from GPS devices, altitude (Z-axis) tagging, reverse geocoding, adding or updating the GPS data in images, adding custom keywords, and other options.

“Combining the power of Aperture and Google Maps (the mapping engine you know and love), this is a powerful, new edit plug-in that makes geotagging your photos a snap,” Übermind says. There is also a stripped-down version of the software, simply called Maperture, which only adds or updates GPS data to your digital photos, while scaling from a few images to your entire library. Maperture Pro, on the other hand, adds an impressive assortment of features requested by users, including:

– Add or update global positioning system (GPS) data to your digital images;
– Scales from a few images to your entire library;
– Elegant, responsive user-interface;
– Altitude now added to GPS tags;
– Import GPS Tracklog data files (GPX, KML, LOG, NMEA & TCX);
– Options for Reverse Geocoding location information;
– Copy, Paste, Remove & Show Location menu options;
– Option to Drop Pin at Current Location;
– Add custom Keyword(s) to geotagged images;
– Save & manage location Bookmarks;
– Change the Default Map Location;
– Custom cursors & “Aqua” map controls;
– Location aware photos, just a few clicks away.

Maperture Pro requires Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) or later, Aperture 2, Safari and an Internet connection. Aperture, Apple's professional photography application, is designed to assist professional photographers in the post-production work. The software is optimized for speed, using a powerful search engine and the Quick Preview mode for rapid-fire photo browsing.

Those interested in trying out the plug-in can download Maperture now and use it for free. Should you consider the Pro version a good investment, you can always upgrade for $39.95.
