I have not described anything except a missing feature. I've not proposed a solution at this moment. I just see that if we implement a way to remove the geo-data we might want to restore them without loosing work already done on this image. One possibility which come to mind is to bind a key (and just a key as this is not a very common action) to restore the geo-tag. This key will be only available from the filmtrip in the map view. So from a user point of view we would have: 1. drag from filmstrip to map to add geo-tag to image 2. move image on the map to change the geo-tag 3. drag image back to filmstrip to remove geo-tag (or over a trash bin, nothing decided yet) 4. use ctrl-r to restore geo-tag (last two points are not implemented at this moment). At least that's what I'd like to have at the minimum as a user of the map module. Now for point 4 we have to consider all scenario: - geo-tag into the image - geo-tag added from a gpx file Reapplying the gpx file would be a pain as it will also restore geo-tag for all corresponding images. That's why I have hinted the possibility to keep intact initial geo-tag information (coming from RAW, jpg or as imported by a gpx file). Probably more difficult for us developer to get right, but would probably be welcomed by our users.
