Absolutely! And thankyou so much for adding it, and so quickly.

I tried a (Windows only) app called GeoTagNinja, and that uses ArcGIS, which then required an API key. > 1.

Yep, thanks for that, had already seen it. I just thought a configurable option to "launch a URL" and % formatting args would be useful. > 2. The OSM view is the only one suitable for geotagging.

It would be for me. Being able to see the satellite landmarks when trying to manually tag photos would be useful (just to know if I'm "in the ballpark" so to speak). Which led me to thinking about launching a URL, ie. to go to the feature-rich Google Maps, where I can then toggle sat view, go to street view etc to check a landmark. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
