API feature request smugmug.images.get/setGpsLocation

Most of my images are uploaded directly via an eye-fi card. Unfortunately the geotagging leaves a lot to be desired. However I carry a gps logger with me that I use to accurately tag my locally stored raw images.

It would be great if the api would allow me to update the long/lat/alt of the images stored on smugmug without needing to upload everything again.

An API along the lines of
smugmug.images.getGpsLocation
smugmug.images.setGpsLocation

or include the values in the getEXIF, and create a new updateEXIF

This would allow me to compare the location against my GPS tracks and correct if required.

I know there is little chance of this being implemented, but if you don't ask you don't get. Fingers crossed.

Regards

Dobbs.

    Calling smugmug.images.changeSettings allows you to update geotagging.

    There currently isn't any methods for updating exif.

    David,
    Thanks and sorry. I thought I had checked all the obvious functions before posting. Again I may have missed it but is there a way to read the existing values to see if an update is required ?

    Thanks
