Geotags and Flickr

Dmitri Popov
Hello,

I think the question I have was asked before, but I can't for the life of me find the answer. The problem is simple: I use digiKam to geotag my photos (it writes metadata directly to the photos), but it seems that Flickr doesn't recognize the geotags.When I upload a photo geotagged in digiKam, the geotagging info doesn't appear on the Flickr page. Any ideas why this happens?

Thank you!

Kind regards,
Dmitri

Geolocation info are written in GPS exif metadata. This is definitivly
the standard way. If flickr doesn't support Exif GPS info, it's Flickr
problem, not digiKam (:=)))

Note : Exif info are preserved during flickr upload.

Hi Gilles,

Thank you for your reply. I'm sure this is not digiKam's fault, but Flickr doesn't have this problem with other devices and applications I use. Flickr recognizes geotags in photos that come from Nokia N95, HTC Magic, and in photos that are geotagged using other applications (e.g., Geotag http://geotag.sourceforge.net/).

Kind regards,
Dmitri

Re: Geotags and Flickr

Dmitri Popov
I've finally found the culprit. If you geotag a RAW file and then save it as JPEG, Flickr fails to read the geotagging data. But if you first convert the RAW file to JPEG and then geotag it, Flickr reads the geotags just fine. Hope this helps.

Best,
Dmitri

The second way work because geo tags are registered in JPEG Exif
metadata (in file in fact), and flickr backend read it.

I suspect that flickrexport tool convert RAW to JPEG internally and do
not include kipi host application (digiKam) metadata set in database
(as geolocation for RAW which are read only)

It's a bug, not critical, but a bug. Code relevant is there :

http://lxr.kde.org/source/extragear/graphics/kipi-plugins/flickrexport/flickrtalker.cpp#616

Look like all metadata are restored from RAW file to JPEG file but not
digiKam properties.

Please oopen a file in bugzilla about. Thanks in advance. The solution
is just few line of code to add. This can be done by somebody in
team...
