Software and Service for Capture & Process
YUMA diagram

YUMA is the software and service component of u-blox’ Capture & Process technology intended for photo geotagging cameras and camera accessories

Capture & Process is u-blox’ unique and innovative GPS technology that solves the two main challenges of real-time GPS in camera applications; waiting time and power consumption.

It’s ideal for cameras that do not require instantaneous position availability, but require an ultra small battery. GPS position is calculated once photos are uploaded to a PC.




Highlights

  • Extremely short capture time for GPS data: 200ms of GPS receiver on-time, no waiting time for downloading data from satellites
  • Absolute minimum power consumption
  • Predictability: Every capture takes the same amount of time and power
  • Optional YUMA Reverse Geocoding Service for converting a position fix into a street/town/country as well as nearby Points of Interest (POIs)

Features

  • u-blox' unique software  Capture & Process GPS technology achieves the lowest possible power consumption available on the market
  • The PC-based YUMA Software Engine processes the data at a later time to obtain a position fix for each photograph
  • Satellite ephemeris data are provided by YUMA Historic Assistance Service via the Internet
  • Supports Microsoft Windows XP 32bit (SP2), Vista 32/64 bit (SP1), Windows 7 32/64 bit and Mac OS-X (Intel)
