Default Preserve Android meta-data

Just returned home from a wonderful vacation to Europe and got some
great photos on my Android LG- G6

On the device when I examine photo details I ma given a slew of info. In
addition to shutter speed and f-stop I get the exact date and time plus
exact street address, city and country.


When I copy the images to my Win10 PC using ...Photoshop CS-6... though
much of the meta-data is preserved for GPS location I get the latitude
and longitude but do not get the actual street address , city and
country is is present on the Android.

Anyone here know how to preserve all the camera's meta-data ?


thanks

How important is it for you to have actual street, city, and country as part
of the metadata?

Does your phone export the EXIF, GPS, and IPTC metadata, or have you got a
setting in the phone which strips specific location data in a privacy
setting?

Typically camera and exposure details are contained in the EXIF data. GPS,
GEOTags are recorded as latitude, longitude, altitude, and time of capture,
as GPS data seperate from the EXIF. The usual place to find, or enter
specific location information is in the IPTC data. You are going to have to
enter that manually either with PS CS6, Exiftool, or another metadata editor.
Since you have PS CS6, and probably Bridge CS6, you should be able to enter
that specific street address, city, and country data in the Info IPTC panel.
Using Bridge you should be able to apply that data to batches of image files
with the same location data.

*all* of it is. every single bit.

for GPS location I get the latitude
and longitude but do not get the actual street address , city and
country is is present on the Android.


because the software you used on your computer didn't reverse geocode
the gps coordinates.

the address itself is not in the photos. only the gps coordinates.

Anyone here know how to preserve all the camera's meta-data ?


all of it is preserved.

you just need different software, one that does a reverse geocode.

I'm responding so that Philo might just read what you have said.

Are you able to suggest what additional software he may need?

Why?
There is no need to act as a repeater. Philo is a regular here, and he is as
likely to have read nospam’s post as any of us.

He should be able to get by with what he has, PS CS6 + Bridge CS6, otherwise
there is always EXIFTool.

That makes sense. I had forgotten that declaration.

There are times nospam can be quite aggravating, and argumentative due to his
position on many polarizing issues, but there are times he can provide some
useful information. However, there are many times he can be evasive, and
engage in never ending circular arguments with specific individuals.

only because those specific individuals nitpick the most
inconsequential details solely to argue and entirely ignore the actual
topic. they are the true trolls.

No worries, Savageduck! I do TRY to uncover the facts! ;-)

Philo has been one of my Facebook friends for quite some years now. I've
bought a copy of his book of photographs too - he sent me a signed copy
and wouldn't accept payment until I'd received the book here in the UK.

https://www.amazon.com/Kochanskis-Co...dp/1466441682/

position on many polarizing issues, but there are times he can provide some
useful information. However, there are many times he can be evasive, and

I truly hope that Philo is wrong about 'nospam' being wrong "99% of the
time"!

He should be able to get by with what he has, PS CS6 + Bridge CS6, otherwise
there is always EXIFTool.

I think that years from now I might find it very helpful.
Though certainly not essential, as long as the data are there, I'd like
to preserve it.

Does your phone export the EXIF, GPS, and IPTC metadata, or have you got a
setting in the phone which strips specific location data in a privacy
setting?


Will have to look into that, but it appears simply that Photoshop is not
picking up all there is.

Typically camera and exposure details are contained in the EXIF data. GPS,
GEOTags are recorded as latitude, longitude, altitude, and time of capture,
as GPS data seperate from the EXIF. The usual place to find, or enter
specific location information is in the IPTC data. You are going to have to
enter that manually either with PS CS6, Exiftool, or another metadata editor.
Since you have PS CS6, and probably Bridge CS6, you should be able to enter
that specific street address, city, and country data in the Info IPTC panel.
Using Bridge you should be able to apply that data to batches of image files
with the same location data.




I know I could do it manually but with 1000 images doing so would be
impractical.
