This publication provides guidelines to the best practice for georeferencing. Though it is targeted specifically at biological occurrence data, the concepts and methods presented here can be applied in other disciplines where spatial interpretation of location is of interest.
§2.7.7 GPS-enabled Digital Cameras
GPS-enabled Digital Cameras are like Smart Phones with respect to positional accuracy as they have similar sized in-bord antennas. To conserve battery life, most GPS-enabled digital cameras have options to set positional update intervals. Depending on the camera, these can range from once every second to once every 5 minutes. This may, depending on the interval set, have significant implications with respect to both coordinates and uncertainty.
Underwater digital cameras only update their position when the diver or snorkeller takes the camera above the surface long enough for the GPS to fix its position.
