About ExifLooter
ExifLooter is a command-line tool that reads image metadata to find geolocation data. It can check a single image, a local directory, or a list of image URLs passed in from other tools. Found GPS coordinates can be converted into OpenStreetMap links for review. The tool can also remove metadata from images, either one file at a time or across a directory.
The tool depends on exiftool, which must be installed and available on the system PATH. The repository lists Linux as the platform. It is licensed under Apache 2.0, and its README describes a roadmap of proposed features and known issues tracked in the repository's open issues.
