EXIF Viewer and GPS Settings

I got a new P&S with GPS built in. It is very cool, but I don't have easy access to the exif data and the GPS coordinates.

Is there an easy process to see, view, and use the data?

There are lots of free EXIF viewers on the internet, but can someone recommend one and some idea of processing steps?
It is the purpose of life that each of us strives to become actually what he is potentially. We should be obsessed with stretching towards that goal through the world we inhabit.

    There are lots of options depending on your workflow and what tools you use. Do you use Lightroom? The Map view rocks for viewing geo information. Opanda is a good standalone program for viewing EXIF. Or you can use a browser plugin. You can copy the coordinates from the EXIF info and paste them into a google maps search. Even MS Windows Explorer can show you EXIF details. Go to Properties, Details.

    To answer my own questions, I am using Jeffery's EXIF viewer as a plug in. It still works after you upload to smugmug as well and you get traceable data like this:




    I did look at Opanda, I will have to study it more, thanks.
