GPS Metadata and JPGS
Posted by Ernest Miller
This story is actually several months old, but is something that I hadn't see before. Apparently, some GPS-enabled camera phones can tag the resulting photo with GPS metadata, so you not only have the photo, but know where it was taken as well. The AkuAku SF blog even has a nifty interface that will allow you to click on a GPS-tagged photo and bring up a map that will show the location (GPS Tagged JPEGS). UltraNifty, but one has to wonder about the privacy implications.
