I do not have special needs - search by name for individual XMP location
tags like it exists for other picture properties would be sufficient.


Alternative search technique would be to pin point a place on the globe
(pre-searched by entering country or town or street) and to define
area/range around that point in km/miles. The result of the query should
be images with GPS location in that perimeter or images without GPS info
but with XMP location.

There is already a geo-location tab in the interface for displaying the
selected image on the globe, so instead of preparing a new GUI, this
existing one could be made interactive.
