Reduce the number of decimal digits in ${gpslatitude#}

[Manard]

Hello,

I use exiftool to extract and format various data using fmt files.
I'm looking for a way to reduce the number of decimal places to the values displayed by $gpslatitude# and $gpslongitude# for example in this type of fmt file:

Code Select Expand

[HEAD]N° Dalle,N° Photo+date,lat,lng,date
${gpslatitude#}&${gpslongitude#},${BaseName}_${gpsdatetime#;DateFmt("%Y-%m-%d");},$gpslatitude#,$gpslongitude#,${gpsdatetime#;DateFmt("%Y-%m-%d");}
#

With my thanks for your help

Add the -c (-coordFormat) option to your command. For example, adding
-c %.5f
will limit the GPSLatitude/GPSLongitude to 5 decimal places.

You would have to remove the hashtags from the FMT file though. This also does not affect the GPSAltitude.

The other option would be to edit the FMT file and use the Perl sprintf function
${gpslatitude#;$_=sprintf("%.5f",$_)}&${gpslongitude#;$_=sprintf("%.5f",$_)},${BaseName}_${gpsdatetime#;DateFmt("%Y-%m-%d");},${gpslatitude#;$_=sprintf("%.5f",$_)},${gpslongitude#;$_=sprintf("%.5f",$_)},${gpsdatetime#;DateFmt("%Y-%m-%d");}

Thank you very much StarGeek for your help, both solutions work, I just had to add in the fmt file a ";" between gpslongitude# and $_=sprintf("%.5f",$_)

Good afternoon

Oops, fixed.
