GPSLatitudeREF and GPSLongitudeREF ignored on import
Closed this issue · 1 comments
Since the GPSLatitude and GPSLongitude can be signed the GPSLatitudeREF and GPSLongitudeREF needs to be considered.
An example is
GPSLatitude = -38.025312
GPSLongitude = 145.28905
Can be expressed
GPSLatitude = 38.025312
GPSLatitudeREF = S
GPSLongitude = 145.28905
GPSLongitudeREF = E
OR
GPSLatitude = -38.025312
GPSLatitudeREF = N
GPSLongitude = -145.28905
GPSLongitudeREF = W
The point being the REF modifies the sign of the value provided. Right now my southern hemisphere images are showing off the coast of China rather than Victoria Australia. The EXIF tags are as follows.
GPSLatitude = 38.025312
GPSLatitudeREF = S
GPSLongitude = 145.28905
GPSLongitudeREF = E
This same image opened in IrfanView and using the "Show on Google Maps" places the image in the correct location. Pic2Map.com aslo correctly identifies the location of the images
This is my result with your lat, lon test. The point.
If you want send me a problematic photo to my email mariosmsk@gmail.com
Thanks,
