How do I view the GPS info stored on the SD card of the Powershot SX260 on my laptop?

How do I view the GPS info stored on the SD card of the Powershot SX260 on my laptop? (A Mac) I just downloaded Browser EX, but that doesn't seem to help me view the GPS data and locate that data on a map.

Help!!!

Thanks, appreciate your response.

You will need the Canon Map Utility software. It is installed with BrowserEX.

Click [Go] in the menu bar, select [Applications] -> [Canon Utilities] -> [Map Utility], and then click [Map Utility] to start the software.

Hi Guys.

How do I go about downloading the software needed to view on a map the locations of pictures taken, preferably Google Earth? I use a Windows laptop. I've searched the Canon site but without any luck. I have a SX260 HS camera.

Thanks
