Places

July 13, 2017 by Rod Lawton

A generic term for tools or modes which show where pictures were taken. Smartphones will tag any photos you take with them with the current location automatically. Very few cameras have the GPS hardware necessary to do this, but it is possible to add the location information later by dragging photos on to a map in programs like Lightroom or Apple Photos. You can use the Places feature to find images taken at a specific location.
