Hence the Image GPS coordinates and other metadata evidences are established. Image location in phone properties and EXIF entries of location are found same on Google Map. This is the exact GPS location where I captured the picture as shown in Google Map in figure 5 below. Image properties of phone shows Location in Decimal Degrees (DD) i.e “34.381611, 73.464867” as shown in figure 2, while the tool 'EXIFPro 2.1', gives GPS coordinates in Degrees, minutes, and seconds (DMS) i.e 34☂2'53.8'N 73☂7'53.5'E as shown in figure 4. Photo Location on GOOGLE MAP retrieved by EXIFPro and Image properties in Phone The EXIF entries of the image is shown in figure 3 & figure 4 belowįigure 3 below shows the metadata details, however the size of file is different as actual size shown in phone (refer to figure 2 above)įigure 4 below exhibits the GPS coordinates This figure 2 below exhibits the properties of image in phoneĮXIF Properties of the image using ExifPro 2.1 The original photo that is used for the analysis is shown in figure 1 below THE REST OF THE DETAILED ANALYSIS IS GIVEN BELOW FOR FURTHER REFERENCE However the results are absolutely fine now as I have understanding of the GPS format.Most of the tools shown the very near locations of the expected results. In tool like EXIF Data Viewer, the GPS values were ' GPS latitude34? 22 minutes and 53.794669 seconds north GPS longitude73? 27 minutes and 53.508187 seconds east', The '?' was ambiguous. Both are the same locations on the Google Maps.īy extracting the data from the EXIF, and finding that the tool didn't do a good job converting it to text? In that case, what error did it introduce?

However EXIF tools shows this location in Degrees, minutes, and seconds (DMS) i.e 34☂2'53.8'N 73☂7'53.5'E. I came to know that, image properties in phone i.e location of image is shown in Decimal Degree (DD) Format i.e “34.381611, 73.464867”. The properties of photo (LOCATION) in phone, where the photo was taken and the EXIF entries (of LOCATION) extracted by the tool “EXIFPRo 2.1” are same.Īfter testing several EXIF tools, I used EXIFPRo 2.1 because of its good results.ĭuring this. There is nothing to worry, initially it was small misunderstanding. Let me answer your questions and brief of my analysis Or, by using a second source for GPS coordinate? In that case, was the original error within what is expected for consumer GPS coordinates? Or was it outside? And how did you establish 'the exact GPS coordinates'?īy extracting the data from the EXIF, and finding that the tool didn't do a good job converting it to text? In that case, what error did it introduce? (And
