I would prefer if result of geotagging of my raw file are not written to raw file, but to XMP sidecar files. Is that possible? And if yes how? Thank you for your kind help.

Hi Richo,
This page (https://exiftool.org/metafiles.html) explains all about the use of sidecar files.

Phil, thanks,
of course I found it there :-)
Now when I have GPS coordinates I wonder how can I best update the location text information base don them. I have a python program which does that, but I wonder if I can pass gps coordinates found by exiftool -geotag into it and back into exif in variable so I can set it all gps and names in one exif run :-)
I don't know how you could do this in one run if you need to run your python program in between exiftool runs.

@Phil, is it possible to print out the found GPS coordinates during step where -geotag command is used to parse gps file based on DateTimeOriginal of raw files?
This isn't quite what you want, but, you can see the coordinates being written if you add -v2 to the command.

Is there maybe some way to use them in config file and run external command in config file? ;-) I know asking too much.
This might be possible, but it would be tricky.
