All images were misplaced, some images did not receive GPS coordinates at all\u2026 something very strange was going on. After a odyssey through the Internet (where I stumbled across <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bt747.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BT747, a nice program to convert track formats<\/a>), countless conversions from one format to another (via a third format), which all lead to the same crappy result, I found out what was the problem: the <strong>time zone<\/strong> which Aperture quietly assumes the track files have. One click here:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.joerg-seyfried.de\/alt\/2010\/05\/aperture-places\/bildschirmfoto-2010-05-31-um-14-38-56\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-161\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-161 size-full\" title=\"Bildschirmfoto 2010-05-31 um 14.38.56\" src=\"https:\/\/www.joerg-seyfried.de\/alt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/Bildschirmfoto-2010-05-31-um-14.38.56.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"257\" height=\"111\"><\/a>\u2026and (amlost) everything was ok &#8211; if you place the cursor over a different zone before clicking \u201eok\u201c, Aperture will also notice that it should apply the changes. Very buggy behavior indeed &#8211; and since last time the GPS placement worked fine (which was before daylight savings time), there&#8217;s a major bug on the loose here. Here&#8217;s the workflow I had to use:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>convert Columbus-CSV-files to &nbsp;GPX (use whatever you like most here, BT747, GPS Babel or anything else but TimeAlbum which causes Aperture to crash repeatably)<\/li>\n<li>Read track into Aperture<\/li>\n<li>Set track time zone to UTC<\/li>\n<li>Place first photo (Caution: use the correct offset to UTC here &#8211; in my case, that was MESZ-UTC= -60 min.)<\/li>\n<li>Let Aperture place the rest of the photos along your track.<a href=\"http:\/\/www.joerg-seyfried.de\/alt\/2010\/05\/aperture-places\/bildschirmfoto-2010-05-31-um-14-48-11\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-162\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-162 size-medium\" title=\"Bildschirmfoto 2010-05-31 um 14.48.11\" src=\"https:\/\/www.joerg-seyfried.de\/alt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/Bildschirmfoto-2010-05-31-um-14.48.11-450x391.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"391\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.joerg-seyfried.de\/alt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/Bildschirmfoto-2010-05-31-um-14.48.11-450x391.png 450w, https:\/\/www.joerg-seyfried.de\/alt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/Bildschirmfoto-2010-05-31-um-14.48.11.png 829w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Having returned from our trip to South Tyrol, I grabbed my GPS tracks off my Columbus V900, piped them through GPS Babel and loaded them into Aperture.
