MediaMapper App Amps Up Your Photos and Videos on Google Earth

Fort Collins, Colo. — Red Hen Systems, LLC, announces updates and a price reduction for its powerful MediaMapper Mobile (MMM) app. Available on the Google Play store for just $1.99, the versatile, user-friendly app empowers anyone with an Android smartphone or tablet to add a host of information to photos and videos, as well as easily map them onto Google Earth for later reference or to share with others.

The app is packed with features that make it a favorite for a broad range of uses, from casual everyday activities to professional photography to commercial data collection and surveillance missions. In fact, MMM is only the second app ever approved by the U.S. government for distribution on the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) GEOINT App Store.

Casual users will love tracking their routes on Google Earth, then clicking on any point along the mapped route to reveal the photo or video frame from that point, geotagged with a host of location and other sensor-based information. Add a QR code to any photo and instantly share its mapped location with others. A triangulation feature allows users to obtain distances to far-away targets without using a laser range finder. Additional features include:

  • Connect to a laser range finder with Bluetooth for accurate distances to your target.
  • Connect to external GPS devices with Bluetooth.
  • Add audio notes to your photos and videos.
  • Use Bluetooth to add additional sensor information to photos, such as temperature or humidity.
  • Create close-up photos to embed within larger photos.
  • Compatible with several Samsung, Nikon, Sony and GoPro Android-dedicated and WiFi-enabled cameras—listed on the Google Play store.

“The uses for MediaMapper Mobile are limited only by your imagination,” says Neil Havermale, Red Hen Systems managing partner. “With the wave of new 360Ëš cameras already upon us, we’ll continue ensuring MediaMapper Mobile’s relevance for adding value to these exciting new products as well.”
