I open the image with Preview.

I'm trying to figure out why the GPS information doesn't initially display in Finder. If I open the image in Preview and then close it without saving the detailed information displays. Why?

The link below shows what is happening.

If I don't do this open/close routine, will the GPS information be visible to photogrammetry software?

I was using the D-RTK2 basestation and had a FIX during the entire flight.

Thanks,
CJ

I dont use Finder but the way to answer "will the GPS information be visible to photogrammetry software?" is to try it.
Another thing you can do is open the jpg file with a text editor ad look for the strings like the attach. Location in yellow, precision in red

Thank you Guille for you reply. I did try the photos in WebODM and YES! the location data is used from the photos. I just don't understand why the info doesn't display at first in Finder.
