How to set photo coordinates

Choose a photo and inspect its current coordinates. Select Set and enter latitude and longitude together. Re-enter an existing altitude if you want to retain it; leaving altitude blank clears its stored value when setting coordinates. Review the proposal, apply the change and inspect the verified output.

Coordinates, altitude and place names

Latitude accepts values from -90 to 90 and longitude from -180 to 180; zero is a valid coordinate. An optional signed altitude uses metres and belongs to the same GPS operation. GPS values are written to EXIF and embedded XMP. Descriptive city and country fields remain separate from coordinates.

GPS writing support

The engine writes and verifies supported GPS coordinates in JPEG, PNG and static WebP. Enter decimal coordinates yourself; the tool does not infer a location, geocode an address or fetch a map. Camera applications may display embedded coordinates differently.

Example: correct an incorrectly tagged photo

Replace a photo's incorrect pair of coordinates with latitude 49.2827 and longitude -123.1207 when those are the values you intend. Re-enter its existing altitude to retain it, or leave altitude blank to clear that stored value. Review the complete GPS change before saving.

Processing, privacy and deletion

Originals, previews, reports and edited copies are stored privately on the ImageWing server, outside public media storage. Every private endpoint checks account or browser-session ownership. Preview derivatives contain no embedded metadata.

Uploads expire 60 minutes after upload. Downloads do not extend retention. Expired files become inaccessible immediately; the server cleanup command removes expired temporary files. Delete my files cancels active work; files in use are removed when processing stops or by cleanup. Presets are stored locally in your browser and exclude sensitive values unless you explicitly include them.
