<div dir="ltr">Hi Dimitri,<div><br></div><div>Few month ago an user report to bugzilla that digiKam must take a care about the precision of GPS info embedded in Exif. Typically, the GPS device need to be well synchronized with the satellite to have enough precision of position measurement. This prevent wrong map position of image when precision is not enough.</div><div><br></div><div>This is debated in this file : <a href="https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=326406">https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=326406</a></div><div><br></div><div>Look also if this file is relevant of your problem : <b><a href="https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=353458" target="_blank">https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=353458</a></b></div><div><br></div><div>So there is another Exif GPS tags to add to said to digiKam to handle the information.</div><div><br></div><div>Look in image metadata if you don't miss the references of lat and long info :<br></div><div><br></div><div><pre style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;font-size:11px;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;color:rgb(51,51,51);line-height:9.54861px;background:rgb(250,250,250)"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;vertical-align:baseline;background:rgba(255,0,0,0.0470588)"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;vertical-align:baseline;color:rgb(221,34,0);background:transparent">Exif.GPSInfo.GPSLatitudeRef</span></span></pre><pre style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;font-size:11px;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;color:rgb(51,51,51);line-height:9.54861px;background:rgb(250,250,250)"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;vertical-align:baseline;background:rgba(255,0,0,0.0470588)"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;vertical-align:baseline;color:rgb(221,34,0);background:transparent"><br></span></span></pre><pre style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;font-size:11px;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;color:rgb(51,51,51);line-height:9.54861px;background:rgb(250,250,250)"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;vertical-align:baseline;background:rgba(255,0,0,0.0470588)"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;vertical-align:baseline;color:rgb(221,34,0);background:transparent"><pre style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;color:rgb(51,51,51);line-height:9.54861px;background:rgb(250,250,250)"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;vertical-align:baseline;background:rgba(255,0,0,0.0470588)"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;vertical-align:baseline;color:rgb(221,34,0);background:transparent">Exif.GPSInfo.GPSLongitudeRef</span></span></pre><pre style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;color:rgb(51,51,51);line-height:9.54861px;background:rgb(250,250,250)"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;vertical-align:baseline;background:rgba(255,0,0,0.0470588)"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;vertical-align:baseline;color:rgb(221,34,0);background:transparent"><br></span></span></pre></span></span></pre></div><div><br></div><div>Look in code, it's not too complex to understand :</div><div><br></div><div><a href="https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/graphics/digikam/repository/revisions/master/entry/libs/dmetadata/metaengine_gps.cpp" target="_blank">https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/graphics/digikam/repository/revisions/master/entry/libs/dmetadata/metaengine_gps.cpp</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>If these 2 tags are not present, the GPS info is not decoded.</div><div><br></div><div>Gilles</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">2016-03-06 11:55 GMT+01:00 Dmitri Popov <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:lazylegs@gmail.com" target="_blank">lazylegs@gmail.com</a>></span>:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Hello,<br>
<br>
Sometimes I use ExifTool to geotag photos. The geotagging command I<br>
use looks something like this:<br>
<br>
exiftool -overwrite_original -GPSLongitude=52.5487429714954<br>
-GPSLatitude=-1.81602098644987 .<br>
<br>
Both Flickr and Gwenview handle and display geotags correctly.<br>
However, digiKam doesn't seem to recognize geotags, so the photos are<br>
displayed as if they have no geographical coordinates in their<br>
metadata. Any ideas what causes the problem and how to fix it?<br>
<br>
Thank you!<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
Dmitri<br>
