GPS
View GPS Metadata on Mac
GPS tags record where a capture happened. That is powerful for travel archives and sensitive for privacy—especially before client delivery or public posts.
Apps are available exclusively on the Mac App Store.
Inspect GPS fields locally on the Mac before publishing galleries or sending client selects. Stills often store coordinates in EXIF; some MOV and MP4 files keep location in QuickTime atoms.
MSAM.media apps help you review what is embedded and export selected fields for shoot maps—without uploading originals to a third-party web viewer. When your studio policy requires redaction, confirm the tags first, then apply your removal workflow.
For a step-by-step privacy review, see the MSAM.media guide on reviewing GPS metadata before sharing. Face-region tags are a related privacy check—see the Face Regions topic.
