I created a simple app of known family geo spots, and manually geo tagged all my family's photos (8000). Did the exact same thing and gave it to my parents as a Christmas gift. It'…

Scan photos as you have them, trying to keep similar events in time together. Then send them to Timeline Scan to date them so they're in chronological order. Not sure what you mean…
