possible to use ExifTool to insert GPS Data into PSD file?

Hello,

I am a photographer creating panoramas from multiple TIF-Files (with GPS-Data in EXIF header).
 After merging the TIF-images into a panorama the EXIF information is not in the output file anymore since the stiching process involves several files and typically EXIF-Data cannot be combined.

I am wondering now if there is a way to use ExifTool to 'create' an EXIF-Header in the output file (is TIF and/or PSD)?

This would allow me to use an image file as reference and insert its GPS-Data into the output file.

The idea is to have an ExifTool-command-line(s) to process the output files as the are created.

Any suggestions are most welcome. Please feel free to contact me to obtain further information.
Thank you for your attention.

Yes, exiftool can be used to copy exif information to TIFF and PSD images:

Code:

exiftool -tagsfromfile SRC -exif:all DST

where SRC is the source image file, and DST is the
destination image.  Either image may be of any supported format (JPEG, TIFF,
PSD, etc).

Using -exif:all copies only the exif information,
but you can copy any other information you want too (you may want to also
either copy the XMP information with -xmp:all, or write the EXIF
to XMP with "-exif:all>xmp:all").
