Only some of the photos I exported from Panoramio got mapped automatically when uploading to Mapillary. That’s mainly a problem of the Google export, but this would really help me: When mapping photos manually, please let me overwrite the coordinates in the Lat and Long field. I would then copy&paste from [Panoramio is no longer available](http://www.panoramio.com/photo/108701418), so the easiest would be to allow me to enter 55° 40’ 21.82" N 12° 35’ 38.49" E (even easier: if I could paste it into **one** field - but I understand if that’s not possible). If I click ‘change position’ in Panoramio, I can see the coordinates in the format 55°40′22″N 12°35′38″E - but it’s an additional step and not as easy to copy. ---

Have you tried Geosetter [http://www.geosetter.de/en](http://www.geosetter.de/en) to update you gps data in the EXIF part? ---

Too lazy to use a third interface 😉 ---

I understand I am also lazy, but on the otherhand the program does exactly that you asked for, so it is worth a try ---

I don’t work with Windows. But I found a workaround for Mac [How to Manually Add a Location to Your Images in Photos for Mac](https://www.tekrevue.com/tip/add-location-photos-mac). Here I can paste the coordinates that I copy from Panoramio. I’d still prefer to do it during the upload to Mapillary, as that is when I see which photos are missing the coordinates. ---

Interestingly, when I opened the photos (exported from Panoramio) that Mapillary couldn’t place on the map in _Photos_, many of them **did** have coordinates. So for them it was enough to import them to _Photo_ and export them with _‘Include: Location information’_ checked.
