Hello,

Does the trial version of Pix4D desktop not allow to load ‘user own’ images with geolocation file?

Hi Larry,&nbsp;

All functionalities of the software should be available on the trial. Do you have a specific error message that is displayed? If you could post a screenshot or copy the error message that would help. Also, do you import images with geolocation stored in the EXIF tags or do you import the geolocation in a separate file?

Thanks,

The geolocation in a separate file (txt), which is like&nbsp;[https://support.pix4d.com/hc/en-us/articles/205320215](https://support.pix4d.com/hc/en-us/articles/205320215)

The trial version works with EXIF demo (Quarry, Cadastral).&nbsp;

Thanks for the screenshots, much clearer like that.&nbsp;

Try adding the “.JPG” at the end of the image names in the text file. Then you can give it a try again. If this does still not work, please add the comma separators as described in the specifications of the geolocation input file:&nbsp;[https://support.pix4d.com/hc/en-us/articles/202558539-Input-Files#label2](https://support.pix4d.com/hc/en-us/articles/202558539-Input-Files#label2)

Let me know if that worked!

Pierangelo, thanks a lot,

It works by&nbsp;adding the “.JPG” at the end of the image names in the text file.

Regards,
