[OSM-talk] Galaxy S3 for Mapping

Normally I use a point-and-shoot camera and a Garmin GPS 60Cx while
mapping.  I correlate the photos to the GPX using the time stamps in
JOSM.  Works great!  I thought I would try my Galaxy S3 and let it
geotag the photos taken with its camera with its GPS.  What I got was
five or six photos all at the exact same spot on the map, even though
they were taken 100s of meters apart.  This was followed by another
group in a different location, and so on.  The Galaxy's GPS was turned
on, and I had a clear view of the sky.  Any idea what went wrong and
how to correct it next time?
