Re: Exiftool compatible GPS-tracking-system
First, I have to say sorry, to be a little offtopic.

In the meantime I use gpsbabel to create e.g. a gpx-file. It looks like that gpsphoto could fit my needs, but I don't know which options should be used. Probably I am thinking the wrong way. I write the data with exiftool and a bash-script, image by image in a loop.

How should I include gpsphoto and which options should I use? Uses gpsphoto exiftool? I have 2 exiftool-versions installed, the one I get with smart (6.49) and another one, not in the path (6.90), which I use with my script. Do I have to tell gpsphoto which exiftool has to be used?

It would be very nice, if you can give me an example with gpsphoto, which I should try. E.g. gpsphoto has an option "--city "text", is this the same as -IPTC:City= with exiftool? Is there a way that the nearest city is defined automatically by the gps-coordinates? If you know a discussion-forum or similar for gpsphoto please let me know. At http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=625922 there are only a few postings.
