how to import GPS data into CR3 file

[HumpsterJ]

Hello, I am hoping someone can help me as I see the creator is no longer active. I have a very simple requirement I take photos on a Canon M50 the .JPG format of the photo has GPS data I want to be able to export this into the raw format?

So far in the GUI version I have exported the data as .XMP but it won't seem to import into the same image file but in CR3, Any help would be appreciated.

Many thanks

You could try this in the ExifTool Direct box:

-tagsfromfile %d%f.JPG -gps:all

Thanks, Phil now trying to use the exe I have managed to get to the point where I can show all the GPS data by using the D:\Test>exiftool -a gps:all img_0821.jpg common it then list these GPS data in the DOS interface in Win 10. What do I need to do extract as a file that I can then re-import into the CR3 file? All I want to add is the GPS location.

Thanks

The command is

-tagsfromfile %d%f.JPG -gps:all -ext cr3 FILEorDIR

where FILEorDIR is one or more CR3 files or directories containing the CR3 and JPG files.

Thanks, Phil it updates it but the info still does not show up in CyberLink photo director 11, I think the issue is at their end.

There are various places that the GPS may be stored in a CR3.  My command will write the EXIF tags, but there are other places ExifTool could write it.  So you will have to check where the CyberLink software expect the GPS to be stored (if in fact it supports it at all).
