API feature request smugmug.images.get/setGpsLocation

[Dobbin]

Most of my images are uploaded directly via an eye-fi card. Unfortunately the geotagging leaves a lot to be desired. However I carry a gps logger with me that I use to accurately tag my locally stored raw images.

It would be great if the api would allow me to update the long/lat/alt of the images stored on smugmug without needing to upload everything again.

An API along the lines of
smugmug.images.getGpsLocation
smugmug.images.setGpsLocation

or include the values in the getEXIF, and create a new updateEXIF

This would allow me to compare the location against my GPS tracks and correct if required.

I know there is little chance of this being implemented, but if you don't ask you don't get. Fingers crossed.

Regards

Dobbs.

Calling smugmug.images.changeSettings (http://wiki.smugmug.net/display/API/show+1.2.2?method=smugmug.images.changeSettings) allows you to update geotagging.

There currently isn't any methods for updating exif.

Cheers,

David,
Thanks and sorry. I thought I had checked all the obvious functions before posting. Again I may have missed it but is there a way to read the existing values to see if an update is required ?

Thanks

Dobbs
