Reading the GPS data from the image returned by the camera in iOS iphone

Question

I need to get the GPS coordinates of an image taken with the iOS device\'s camera. I do not care about the Camera Roll images, just the image taken with UIImagePickerControl

Answer 1

In your UIImagePickerController delegate, do the following:

- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info
{
  NSDictionary *metadata = [info valueForKey:UIImagePickerControllerMediaMetadata];

  // metadata now contains all the image metadata.  Extract GPS data from here.
}
