GPS 2 Photos lets you view, add, or edit EXIF GPS coordinates for JPEG and WebP images in the WordPress Media Library and galleries powered by NextGEN, Envira, FooGallery, or Modula.
It displays existing GPS data as editable fields (Media Library only) or provides a button to add or update coordinates. Clicking the button opens a map interface where you can set a location by simply clicking on the map, searching for a place, or typing it in manually.
This plugin extends the functionality of the Geo 2 Maps add-on for NextGEN Gallery, which displays maps with photos, galleries, or albums using EXIF GPS data.
The plugin is using Microsoft Azure Maps and requires a free Azure Maps API Key to function as described below.
To amend EXIF GPS coordinates, use the PHP Exif Library (PEL) by Martin Geisler. (Copyright (C) 2004–2006 Martin Geisler. Licensed under the GNU GPL.
