Chris Samuel said,
Digikam will show you geolocation information for an image, when you are
looking at an image on the right hand side there's a vertical tab called
"Geolocation" and will overlay the image on a map (KDE Marble by default
>butyou can switch to Google Maps if you so wish).
I new about Digikam, I assumed though it was not full free software so I
have used "geotag" instead, works well. It uses the browser Chromium to
display Googleearth showing the location. Geotag can also do much more.
Don't forget you can also extract the coordinates from the image with the
ImageMagick "identify" utility at the command line too (though the format
looks a little arcane).
For example:
chris@quad:~/Pictures/Phone/GalaxyNexus/2014-12-08$ identify -verbose
2014-12-08T13\:16\:34.jpg | egrep 'GPSLong|GPSLat'
exif:GPSLatitude: 37/1, 48/1, 25488/1000
exif:GPSLatitudeRef: S
exif:GPSLongitude: 145/1, 14/1, 7902/1000
exif:GPSLongitudeRef: E
Best of luck!

There's a cleaner way to do the above using "exiftags"
zlinw@wolflianli:~/images$ exiftags 20090128_111751-043.jpg | grep itude
exiftags: field count mismatch (NikonWhiteBalBias)
Latitude: S 36° 27.7701'
Longitude: E 146° 13.4310'
Altitude: 242.00 m
My main purpose for the post though was to try and identify a particular
program which I KNOW does this. I can visualise the actual screen layout
but dammed if I can remember its name. Geotag does a job much closer to
what I really require though. It has been educational!.
