--- Comment #2 from Galen Adams <gadams...@gmail.com> --- Okay, I tested another bunch of jpegs. Before doing anything in digiKam, embedded GPS data was showing the correct Altitudes in every of several programs I checked including ExifToolGUI and in digiKam itself. These three image files "A" are BEFORE; note that Metadata > Exif > Global Positioning System GPS Altitude is showing 314.2 m; whereas, in Map, Altitude is showing "Undefined" [image: 2023-03-09_144709_S90_0001_A.jpg] [image: 2023-03-09_144748_S90_0002_A.jpg] [image: 2023-03-09_144807_S90_0003_A.jpg] These are the same files, now "B", after "Item > Write Metadata to Selected Files" : note that Metadata > Exif > Global Positioning System GPS Altitude and Map are both now showing Zero (0) m; now, every program I check shows the Altitude to be Zero (0). [image: 2023-03-09_144748_S90_0002_B.jpg] [image: 2023-03-09_144807_S90_0003_B.jpg] [image: 2023-03-09_144709_S90_0001_B.jpg] Here are the same three files, now "C", after restoring the correct Altitude in ExifToolGUI and doing "Item > Reread Metadata from Files" ; correct Altitude is displaying in all programs and MAP is still insisting Altitude is Zero (0). [image: 2023-03-09_144748_S90_0002_C.jpg] [image: 2023-03-09_144807_S90_0003_C.jpg] [image: 2023-03-09_144709_S90_0001_C.jpg] Last, although the Altitude was displaying correctly in every other program, I loaded the files in "Item > Edit Geolocation" and manually entered the Altitude there; it would only allow me to do them one at a time; then, and only then, did the correct Altitude finally show up in Map. This behavior has to be some sort of glitch in digiKam properly recognizing the Altitude. Thanks for taking the time to investigate this.
