Overview

GeoSetter is a free Windows desktop tool for viewing and changing image geodata and IPTC, XMP, and Exif metadata. It works with JPEG and TIFF files as well as camera RAW formats including DNG, CR2, NEF, ARW, RAF, RW2, and RWL. You can place coordinates and altitude on an embedded Google Maps display or enter them directly, synchronize images with NMEA, GPX, PLT, Sony LOG, IGC, and other track files, and export to Google Earth. GeoSetter can automatically fill location fields and altitude values; those features and the embedded map require an internet connection. The software uses ExifTool to write metadata and supports batch editing and metadata templates. Its interface is available in English, German, French, Italian, Swedish, Czech, Spanish, Danish, Dutch, Russian, Japanese, Chinese, and Norwegian. The listed current version is 3.5.3, released on 29 October 2019. It requires Internet Explorer 10 or higher, and the embedded map does not work correctly on Windows XP.

Who it is for
