Address from gps coordinates

Hi,
I would like to know how I can get the address from gps coordinates.
Example: I have this coordinates:
latitude=41.889373 ,
longitude=12.492438
and I want to receive an answer like this: "Rome, It, Via Nazionale"
How do I do this?
Thanks
P.S. I don't have lbs platform

I would suggest trying to find a web service which does this - this goes the other way:

Good Luck

Tell if you are far away from GPS-coordinates

I am thinking of building an iPhone app. Today I saw a man sitting on the bus, and he fell asleep. After plenty of bus stops he woke up.
I want to make an app that gives you an alert before you reach the place you are reaching (by map) and that will be GPS-coordinates I guess. Lets say 500m before.
Is it possible?

MapKit provides the basics for determining location.
The app would need to know the latitude & longitude of the destination, then it would simply compare the current location...just like any GPS app.
When the offset equals a certain distance, an alarm is triggered such as"You are approaching your destination"...just like any GPS app/device that has a clear view of the sky.
As long as no one calls the phone to say "You are approaching your destination" when the user is 1,501 yards away from their stop, the app could tell the user "You are approaching your destination"...just like any good GPS app.

Incorrect Addresses from GPS

All apps in ios5 that automatically guess your address based on location have been incorrect for me.
All that's happening is an incorrect line is being added between the street name and the city. Instead of:
1 Cowley Road,
Oxford
It would be displayed as
1 Cowley Road,
Risinghurst,
Oxford
This is happening on all address around the city, as far as I can tell. Risinghurst IS a suburb of Oxford, but obviously not every address should contain this.
This doesn't happen with any other websites that automatically find address based on postcode and house number, so I assume it's an issue with whatever address database apple is using. I'd be more than happy to report this to them if anyone can provide me with details.
Regards,
Dan

The issue must be elsewhere then.
Searching for my address in google maps returns the correct location. It also sees other locations with the correct address.
Reminders, find my friends, other apps that automatically lookup the address (not just the location) show incorrect addresses.
Just verified through google maps that it is still correct, and it is.

How can I delete ONLY the GPS coordinates from my Hi Res images WITHOUT "Save four Web" or Lightroom

Hello,
I take hi res pics of rare wildlife and plants with both my Camera's and iPhone's GPS deliberately ENABLED. Use the photos and their GPS coordinates to document and plot my sightings with dates on maps. CANNOT disclose those locations to others. I do want to keep the metadata in my pics to the very end.
Use Photohop Extended CS 6 MAC. Save files as hi res TIFF or PSD and sometimes e-mail/upload my pics to the web when I'm done.
I CANNOT use "Save for Web" to delete my metadata — I don't want the jpeg's lossy compression. Need to preserve color profiles.
Don't have Lightroom.
How do use Photoshop to remove ONLY the GPS coordinates from my hi res images EXIF data??? Want to keep other EXIF data.
Surely Adobe can provide this life-saving service?
Thanks

Yep, as others mentioned, just use Bridge and delete the entries there. You can select a whole batch of files and do them all at once.

Can Lightroom recognize and import gps coordinates from xmp files?

Hello guys
i have LR 4.2 and using Lion with a MBP.
I recently got gps4cam for my iphone to record gps coordinates.
Unfortunately i imported all the pix of my vacation to LR instead of importing them with the gp24cam app first
so Now i have the xmp files with gps coordinates in a separate file for each photo, but LR even though ca see that file, does not import any of the info on it
Is there a way to force LR to read and recognize those gps coordinates without having to delete all the pix of my vacation from LR, and re-import them to my mac before with the gps4cam app and afterwards import em in LR.?
i mean i cant believe there is not way to do that...
y LR can read and recognize gps coordinates if are on a picture, but cant recognize and attach those same coordinate to the original fine if they are in a separate xmp file?
thanks for your input guys
matteo

I would process differently:
Import your images as usual directly into LR, without the GPS data
copy the gpx-track from your external device to a storage sport from where LR can access it (my choice: same folder as my images).
Use either the map module to populate LR records with the GPS data (as stated by jim1403) or a plugin from Jeffrey Friedl for geo-encoding.
If you want to have the GPS data in your xmp, trigger the save from LR then (cmd s; may be auto-activated in your catalog settings)
Please note that several import problems have been reported by using other software before LR to update something. Do not let your GPS tracking software touch your images, especially if it offers to write into your proprietary raw files, at least not into your only copy of them... I consider this way too dangerous for my precious negatives. If it also creates xmp, then fine.
I am also a happy user of MotionX-GPS.
The real disdavantage of the LR command to read metadata from files is that it is all-or-nothing: it would be so convenient if one could choose which partial sort of metadata (EXIF, IPTC, development, GPS-coordinates, rating+caption+title) - but that would be a matter of a feature request, not for this forum.

How to send from IPhoto to GPS coordinates?

how to send from IPhoto to GPS coordinates?

Do you wish to locat a photo using Lat/Long? See iPhoto Help
Add places to your photos
If you have photos that don’t have GPS information, including print photos that were scanned to a disk, you can still map your photos in Places.
https://help.apple.com/iphoto/mac/help/index.html?lang=en#
Watch the movie (about 2 minutes)
View and organize photos using Places
iPhoto matches recognizable location names you enter, such as “Seattle” or “Milan,” to a mapping database. When you add a location to a single photo or an entire Event, those photos are marked on the Places map.
Or, if you have latitude and longitude information for the place where you shot your photos, you can use that information to add the location.
Important: You must be connected to the Internet for the Places feature to show photo locations on the map.
Show
To add a place name:
Hide
To use latitude and longitude to add a place:
Select the photo or Event you want to add location information to.Tip: If you select an Event, the location is added to every photo in that Event. But you can add locations to selected photos without adding locations to them all. To do so, select the photos you want, move your pointer over them, and then click the Info button. Skip to step 3.
Click the Info button to open the Information pane.
Select “Assign a Place,” and then type the latitude and longitude, separated by a comma.For example, you can type “24, -110” or, if you prefer, you can use a longer format, such as “24.15988731, -110.50838234.”It’s important to always put the latitude first.
Look at the map to confirm the location, and then do one of the following:
If the location is correct, continue to step 5.
If the location is incorrect, retype the latitude and longitude, or drag the pin to a more exact location on the map.You can use the plus and minus buttons to zoom in and out, and drag the map to center it on a better spot.Note: You can move marker pins only in the small map that appears below Places in the Information pane. You can’t drag marker pins on the full-size Places map.
If you want, you can view the location marked on the full Places map by clicking the arrow next to the location name.

Is there an easy way to get GPS coordinates from Maps.app in Mavericks?

My DSLR doesn't have a GPS built in, but I like to Geo-tag some of my photos. I usually just take a pic with my iPhone and then copy the geo data (GPS coordinates) and paste into the photos (in Adobe Lightroom). Unfortunately, I didn't have my phone with me. I have the location stored as a bookmark in Maps, but I don't see any easy way to just pull coordinates.

Hi,
I am doing the same thing too. I have to call my reports thru menu. I tried web.show_document in my menu and it works. I also added paramform=yes and it gives the report parameters, but I want to give the user the choice of format for the reports. eg. pdf, html, excel, etc. instead of hardcoding it.
Could you please give me some idea on how can I do that??
Thanks.

How to export from CR2 to JPEG with GPS coordinates [LR5.7]

Using GPS coordinates for address on iPhone 4

I need to add GPS coordinates to a contact on my iPhone 4. I need to be able to click on the coordinates and be taken to the location within maps. Is there a way to do this with the new iOS4 and iPhone 4? Thanks

I would add that I observed an odd glitch in iOS 4. I haven't seen it occur yet in iOS 5 on my phone, but I have seen it manifest on my iPad with 5.0.1.
At the office, we have a secure WiFi network that does not broadcast the SSID. Occasionally, I'll see what you see above, and on my iPad (NOT 3G) I will see the WiFi indicator completely disappear... however, I am actually still connected to and using WiFi. If I put it to sleep and wait 5 minutes or so, then fire it up again, the indicator will come back.
I know It's on WiFi on the phone because I can see systems that are not visible to the outside world.

WTR54GS Fails to obtain a DHCP IP Address from Upstream

Greetings!
I had effectively given-up on Linksys Router WTR54GS, as it was advertised that it could be plugged into a pre-existing network (friends home network, a hotel room ethernet jack, etc), but sadly the WTR54GS itself is incapable of obtaining a DHCP IP Address from an upstream DHCP server (like the hotel, etc).
I have tried repeatedly to work with Linksys Support but everyone wants to blame the upstream router, suggesting that I change it's configuration to "Bridged-mode". Yeah, right. Like I'm going to walk down to the hotel lobby main desk and tell them that they need to place THEIR network in bridged mode just so my WTR54GS will work. I was willing to believe that the first router (version 2.0) that I was sent was defective, and let Tech Support talk me into returning it to my vendor and seeking a replacement.
I receieved the replacement (this time version 1.0) and had EXACTLY the same problem. I returned that one as well (marked defective) after talking with Ellen in Linksys 2nd Level Technical Support. She promised this would be referred to the Linksys Engineering group for further study. This was 4+ months ago.
I would like to buy another one, but am hesitant to buy because I just do not trust Linksys Technical Support anymore. Can someone please confirm that Linksys Engineering is aware of this problem, acknowledges its existence, and has resolved (or is at least working on resolving) this problem?

So you have connected WTR through the correct (blue) port to the internet connection?
You have configured the WTR for wired internet connection type?
You have configured the WTR for DHCP?
What does the WTR say on the Status page?
Have you tested the WTR inside your home network?

Bug in Preview's Exif viewer (inverted GPS coordinates)?

Hi,
I've been scratching my head quite a lot over this one...
I'm finalizing an application that gets your GPS coordinates off your Google Latitude history and uses them to geotag your pictures. The idea is to make it easier to use the "Places" functionality of iPhoto, Picasa, etc...
Anyway, I cannot explain why Preview seems to display an incorrect longitude (it drops the "-" sign which places a California picture somewhere in China...) when Exiftool, Picasa and, yes, even iPhoto seem to get it right.
I know some of you will probably think I'm looking at 2 different pictures (I probably would think the same if I were you) but I've double, triple checked. In fact a simple "Show in finder" from iPhoto or Picasa will bring up the picture for me to double-click.
Anyway, see for yourself:
The picture in question
Exiftool
in iPhoto
in Picasa
in Preview
Any feedback appreciated.

However, that would not explainwhy the very complete exiftool output is spotless (as far as I can tell). IPhoto and Picasa also get it right...
That's all well and good. But even if you have smoking-gun evidence that there is a bug in Preview (and it isn't a show-stopping bug either), it will be months, if not years until said bug is fixed. Until then, your output will not work in Preview. So, in any case, you are going to have to modify your code to produce output that Preview can read. Other applications are able to produce such files that Preview can understand. What is the difference?
My advice is to continue working with other tools to generate identical files with identical tags. Then find the difference in output between the other tool and yours. That should identify where the bug lies.

Can the iOS Field Test app data be written to file with GPS coordinates of readings?

I can run the Field Test app on my iPhone5 but I cannot automatically store the data revealed by the app. Would it be possible to do this? and link the GPS coordinates to the data? or is the network data not accessible from an app?

Ask the App developer. There is no such app native on the device.

(GPS) coordinates in Contacts interoperability problem with Maps

I have noticed that using lat/long coordinates works fine in Maps to search for addresses with nameless streets. The address can also be added to a contact. When trying to locate an address from Contacts a problem is that Contacts always add the country to the coordinates and Maps doesn't like that.
If I search for "59.871859,17.527034" in Maps, it takes me to a nameless road in Uppsala, Sweden. I can then add that address to a contact, and the address becomes "+59°52'18.69", +17°31'37.32". When I later press this address in Contacts it appends a seemingly random country to the address, so in my case the address becomes "+59°52'18.69", +17°31'37.32 United States", which Maps doesn't like. If I manually delete the country part in Maps and search again it works fine. The strange thing is that if I edit the address the country is set to Sweden.
Is there a way to have Contacts not add the country to the address it feeds to Maps?
I'm using 1.1.3 firmware in my 16G touch btw.

I forgot to mention that when I choose a destination it keeps saying Calculating route all the time. I waited about 15 minutesand it didn't calculate anything.

IPhoto 11 GPS Coordinates

Where can I find the GPS coordinates in iPhoto 11 for geotagged pics? In iPhoto 09 this information was available under the Photos menu "Show Extended Photo Information".

Afraid not. However, as Larry suggested you can use x EXIF Viewer for Mac OS X to get the GPS coordinates from the file. Just launch EXIF Viewer and drag the photos from iPhoto's window onto the EXIF Viewer icon in the Dock to get this:
No need to export the photo to get the info.
