copy EXIF GPS IFD group?

[janmartin]

Hi all,

I need to copy the
EXIF GPS IFD
group, and all tags in it
from a .jpg4 file to a .dng file that does not have the group yet.

Command line ideas please?

Thanks,
Jan

Try this:

exiftool -tagsfromfile SRC.jpg4 -gps:all DST.dng

Phil, I am looking for same information.
I have a  Photoshop script (http://ps-scripting-experiments.blogspot.com/2010/07/save-jpeg-images-in-photoshop-without.html) to copy makernotes section from original file after Photoshop save operation. Now I want to copy GPS information section as well.

I tried simple read

Code Select Expand


exiftool.exe -gps:all t1i_Sample.JPG
GPS Version ID                  : 2.2.0.0
GPS Altitude Ref                : Above Sea Level
GPS Time Stamp                  : 22:25:34
GPS Satellites                  : 0
GPS Map Datum                   : WGS-84
GPS Date Stamp                  : 2010:07:03


But

exiftool.exe -gps:all -a t1i_Sample.JPG
GPS Version ID                  : 2.2.0.0
GPS Latitude Ref                : North
GPS Latitude                    : 41 deg 54' 49.33"
GPS Longitude Ref               : West
GPS Longitude                   : 69 deg 58' 18.89"
GPS Altitude Ref                : Above Sea Level
GPS Altitude                    : 2.204 m
GPS Time Stamp                  : 22:25:34
GPS Satellites                  : 0
GPS Map Datum                   : WGS-84
GPS Date Stamp                  : 2010:07:03


Notice the first command missing actual coordinates. Does it still copy all tags (in the output of -a option) if

Code Select Expand

-tagsfromfile SRC.jpg -gps:al is used?

Does it still copy all tags (in the output of -a option)?

This is a very good point, and shows an inconsistency in the exiftool interface.

Yes, the -a is effectively assumed for all copy operations.

I should document this.
