    Question Best application to visualize GPS information from photos

    I have just replaced my old digital camera with a new one that includes a GPS. So now I'm looking for a program that can visualize GPS information from the camera.

    It's easy to extract the longitude and lattitude from the EXIF information in the image, but is there an Ubuntu program that I can use to easily see where my photos were taken?

    I did some research and found a program called GPS Correlate. I haven't run it but it supposedly does something similar to what you want.

    To install, go to terminal and type the following command:

    Code:
    sudo apt-get update
    Next, type this command:

    Code:
    sudo apt-get install gpscorrelate
    This command can be used for any program if you know the package name.

    The terminal is the most reliable way to get programs installed but you can just go to the Ubuntu Software Center and search "GPS Correlate".

    I'm sorry, but it doesn't.

    GPS Correlate adds GPS information to an image file. That's not what I want. The GPS information is already in my image files. I want a program that visualizes the information already in the file. something like this: http://piwigo.org/ext/extension_view.php?eid=122, but not as a web service but as a standalone Ubuntu program.
