Introduction to Filecats, the Cataloguing programme, Saving you Time and Frustration. Filecats imports Windows Explorer information into Microsoft Excel, quickly and easily. Filecats Professional also imports metadata.
Filecats Professional is able to swiftly extract metadata from pictures and photographs into an Excel spreadsheet for your use. Included in that is GPS data, which some mobile phones and cameras can record. They can be very useful in finding out whether a photograph was taken in the place it is said it was taken in.
For example, I was given a number of photographs that were said to be taken in the East Midlands. However, on checking the metadata, some of them were apparently taken in North Wales, several hundred miles away.
The most interesting of the GPS data are the co-ordinates, the longitude and latitude. However, there is other data which might be of use, such as the altitude and the direction the camera was facing.
Filecats Professional is able to easily retrieve this metadata into a spreadsheet and make it available for you to use.
