Title: How can I display the city in the name?
Post by: dima on February 08, 2020, 02:00:12 PM
Hello,
How can I add the location in an image? For example 2020-02-01_Tokyo.jpg

Your question isn't very clear.  Do you mean embed a city name in the file as per Phil's post?  Or extract the city name from the file name?  Or add the city name to the file name?

The file should be renamed automatically. Exiftool should read the value from the image. I know that there are only coordinates. So maybe link to a database or a CSV file?

It sounds like you want to take the GPS coordinates from an image and convert this to a city name (also known as reverse geotagging in some circles).  Here is a thread (https://exiftool.org/forum/index.php?topic=8910.msg45862#msg45862) discussing this.
