Set issue position from image EXIF data

Mapit comes with a workflow post function that can automatically populate the issue position (latitude and longitude custom fields) based on an attached image's EXIF data. This can either be images that are already attached to the issue, or images added during the transition. 

To add this functionality to your workflow, go to the desired transition, click Add post function, then choose the post function "Mapit: Set issue position from image EXIF data":

 


Decide what should happen if the issue already has a position - should Mapit overwrite this position or not


Click "Add" to confirm.

 

If more than one image is present, Mapit chooses the one with the latest timestamp in the EXIF data.

If you wish to reduce image size and still use post function, make sure that the software you use to reduce image size does not remove any positioning information in the process.


Set issue position from the address

Extracts position from the address of the image attached in the transition, and populates the Mapit latitude and longitude fields with this data. 

To add this functionality to your workflow, go to the desired transition, click Add post function, then choose the post function "Mapit: Set issue position from the address":
