If you're using a newish version of DigiKam IIRC 0.9.5 or newer, you can use the Geolocation tools that are located in the Image menu. If you click on 'Edit Coordinates' it should allow you to pick a point on the Google Map that appears in the window. -- Registered Linux User #466407 http://counter.li.org -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
