Removing Old Photos With Embedded Location Data : Countering Metadata-Stripped Images
Removing Old Photos With Embedded Location Data is the direct counter to Metadata-Stripped Images: Images lack the device, timestamp, or location metadata a photo taken as described would normally carry. Audit older public photos for embedded location data and remove or reprocess the ones that carry it.
Steps
- 01
Check photo properties on older public posts for embedded GPS data.
- 02
Re-save or re-upload photos through a process that strips metadata where the original can't be edited.
- 03
Prioritize photos taken at your home or workplace first.
