Extract geodata from EXIF

[morten]

As I have all my GPS data in my images, and all posts contain a featured image with this data I need to lookup location from the featured image, but cannot see how to achieve this.

Hi,

I’m sorry, but the plugin doesn’t extract coordinates from EXIF images.  You would need some custom PHP code to do that.  A map could then be generated from the extracted coordinates.

That’s a shame and frankly illogical, as geodata is incorporated in all [in particular phone] images and automatically geolocates Instagram, Facebook, Viewbug, 500px, etc..

If I produce that would you incorporate it in previous versions so I don’t have to merge functionality with each and every update of the plugin?

If you would like to code it, I’ll have a look at how to add it in to the main plugin.  It could be incorporated in the plugin, or added using a filter/action.
