Geotagging Images by editing the exif data

[saitej]

Hi

I am using Qt 5.6.1 mingw32 bit. I need to edit exif data of the images (jpeg) and set the latitude, longitude and altitude of the images. Is there any inbuilt class in Qt for doing this? If not, please suggest a library that can be easily linked with QT.

I have seen this class having location data but I am unable to find example usage of these.

Hi,
you can find a C++ library to read and write exif2 here: http://exiv2.org/

I have tried using that in mingw but I am getting a startup error when I import the library. I have already posted that in the forum and you can have a look at it.

@saitej In that other thread you did not answer the question @SGaist asked.

@jsulm
Can we use exiv2 for commercial project for free or do we have to buy it?

@samdol It is GPL, so you probably will need a commercial license if you're going to sell your closed source software software. But I'm not an lawyer! You should not decide based on opinions in a forum!
