Geotagging within Lightroom

Posted by Sean McCormack

Geotag-lightroom-plugin is a Beta Geotagging plugin for Lightroom created by Jeff Barnes. It utilises a feature of the Export SDK, whereby you can create a menu item within Lightroom. The plugin reads GPX information and writes it to the file in Lightroom using Exiftool.
Features include:

  • Sync photo to GPS using picture of GPS display
  • Interpolate location between track points
  • Add geotags to original images or save to new location

    • While there are some issues, the plugin works “for the most part”. Installation instructions and download information can be got at the Plugin homepage.

      When I download the plugin I get a warning from my virus checker (AVG) and the following message:

      URL: http://geotag-lightroom-plugin.googlecode.com/files/geotag.lrdevplugin.0.1.0.zip
      D:\Users\mclemens\Downloads\geotag.lrdevplugin.0.1.0.zip
      Potentially harmful program HideExec.EV

      Is this a problem with the download, my virus checker or is this a “real” virus? I also posted a comment on the plugin homepage.

      No idea, he does have an issues page, perhaps that would be a start point?
