PhotoPlace

What is PhotoPlace?

It is a multiplatform program (tested on Linux and Windows platforms) developed with python 2.x (>= 2.6) to easily geotag your photos.

Also, with a track log from a GPS device, it can generate a Google Earth /Maps layer with your photos. Moreover, the program can be easily adapted by editing templates and its functionality can be complemented with plugins, for example there is a plugin to generate a music tour that can be used to present your photo collection.

photoplace's Issues

Photoplace can't be installed on Ubuntu 20.04

Photoplace fails to install on Ubuntu 20.04 because it depends on pyexiv2 which is impossible to install since there's apparently some syntax error in the package:

$ sudo pip2 install pyexiv2
DEPRECATION: Python 2.7 reached the end of its life on January 1st, 2020. Please upgrade your Python as Python 2.7 is no longer maintained. pip 21.0 will drop support for Python 2.7 in January 2021. More details about Python 2 support in pip, can be found at https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/development/release-process/#python-2-support
