Geotagging tools

Recently Tim Sutton published a blog post about geotagging with free software and released his QGIS plugin for it. The plugin uses the exiv2 library and requires the python-exiv2 package, which is not available on Windows/OSGeo4W. Therefore ImagesToShape is not available from the plugins repository.

As I’m interested in geotagging myself, I contacted Tim and offered to rewrite the plugin, abandoning exiv2 in favour of a pure Python module.

Approval granted, so I start work on the plugin.
