ExifTool is very flexible about the input format when writing lat/long coordinates, and will accept from 1 to 3 floating point numbers (for decimal degrees, degrees and minutes, or degrees, minutes and seconds) separated by just about anything, and will format them properly according to the EXIF specification. Some GPS tags have values which are fixed-length strings. For these, the indicated string lengths include a null terminator which is added automatically by ExifTool. Remember that the descriptive values are used when writing (eg. 'Above Sea Level', not '0') unless the print conversion is disabled (with '-n' on the command line or the PrintConv option in the API, or by suffixing the tag name with a <code>#</code> character). When adding GPS information to an image, it is important to set all of the following tags: GPSLatitude, GPSLatitudeRef, GPSLongitude, GPSLongitudeRef, and GPSAltitude and GPSAltitudeRef if the altitude is known. ExifTool will write the required GPSVersionID tag automatically if new a GPS IFD is added to an image. <blockquote> <table class=frame><tr><td> <table class=inner cellspacing=1> <tr class=h><th>Tag ID</th><th>Tag Name</th> <th>Writable</th><th>Values / Notes</th></tr> <tr> <td title='0x0000 = 0'>0x0000</td> <td>GPSVersionID</td> <td class=c title=' : = Mandatory'>int8u[4]:</td> <td> </td></tr> <tr class=b> <td title='0x0001 = 1'>0x0001</td> <td>GPSLatitudeRef</td> <td class=c>string[2]</td> <td>(tags 0x0001-0x0006 used for camera location according to MWG 2.0.
