About GPS assist data
The time for the GPS acquiring location information can be shortened by taking in GPS assist data. If connection via
Internet is made using the software, Action Cam Movie Creator, the GPS assist data can be updated automatically.
If the Date & time Setting of the camera is not set, or set time is shifted greatly, the time for the GPS acquiring
location information cannot be shortened.
If the term of validity of GPS assist data has run out, the time for the GPS acquiring location information cannot be
shortened.
Using the support tool
You can also update the GPS assist data by inserting a memory card into the computer. Display the camera setting's
screen of Action Cam Movie Creator, select "Update GPS Assist Data" - the desired memory card drive to be installed on
your computer, and then update the GPS assist data. If you insert this memory card into the camera, the GPS assist
data will be reflected on the camera.
Note
During takeoff and landing of an airplane, set airplane mode to ON.
Use GPS in accordance with the regulations of the place or situation.
It may take from several tens of seconds to several minutes to record the location information when you use the GPS for the first
time or use it again after long intervals. Triangulating time can be shortened by taking in GPS assist data.
Do not cover the GPS sensor with your finger when searching for GPS satellites or when triangulating. This decreases the
sensitivity of the GPS sensor and triangulation may fail.
Sony does not collect location information and routing information.
