As Alan said, the GPS is not in the NEF, so a sample won't help.

...where DIR is the name of a directory/folder containing the images.  On Mac/Linux/PowerShell, use single quotes (') instead of double quotes (") around arguments containing a dollar sign ($).

Enclosed is an example nksc file where the GPS information is stored.
ExifTool can read the file, and identifies the fields correctly, but not the formatting. For example, GPSPosition returns
"AAAAAACAQ0AAAAAAAIBDQAAAAKC/i0xA AAAAAAAAM0AAAAAAAABHQAAAAOBHYDtA"

See the config file that I posted earlier in this thread.

Having experienced this problem as well, and faced with the prospect of having to fix several hundred files by hand, I wrote a small open source windows CLI program (https://github.com/a-roach/nkscgeosync) to automate the process. As a bonus, the program also lets you set various noise reduction settings en-mass.

Note that the current version of ExifTool does decode GPS from NKSC files.  The config file is no longer necessary.
