WINTEC WBT-201

Test Beach Volleyball:

I took a picture from each corner of the beach volleyball place.

Test Park bench:

I had a rest on a park bench for about 15 minutes. Therewith I wanted to see how precise the logger is.

Time Machine X Software
This software that comes with the logger is not fully develloped yet. The entire usability is not nice and it took over one hour to get the GPS coordinates into the Exif Header of 64 pictures. This is much too long as the Sony Software only took 2 minutes in order to do the same with 370 pictures.

Filestructure

Unfortunately the Time Machine X Software is not asking me where I want to save the original and adapted pictures. Furthermore it saves the pictures without any file format ending and this takes 7 minutes for 24 pictures. That is not acceptable at all.

Exporting problems
The Time Machine X Software does not have any possibilities to compress the pictures when exporting them to a KMZ File and Picasa can not process these pictures. With the Sonz CS1 this was not a problem at all.
Summary:

The Wintec WBT-201 itself is a nice GPS logger that is very precise. However the software has to be reworked. I used some other geo software like GPS Babel, Robo-Geo and therewith you can handle the logfiles.
