Just a curiosity really, but I found that after a day of shooting, 2 images did not have GPS coordinates. The fields were written as 0s (meaning that SOMETHING was written, just not the actual coordinates - I would have expected a blank field if NOTHING was written).

The other photos taken on that same flight were correctly registered and the photos of other flights were all fine.

I've attached the EXIFTool export of all photos taken (rename .zip to .csv) - you can filter in a spreadsheet to see the 2 with 0s for GPS.

I wonder if DJI is writing GPS to EVERY image regardless of whether the GPS reciever has a lock on postiion. It might be nice to leave it blank or show a warning that "GPS not found" on your controller so you can try to wait for it to acquire.

The drone is a Phantom 4 Pro v1.

At the time of the post, we had the latest firmware on the drone, controller and battery. (we check/update the night before every flight)
