We take a lot of pictures, with our Nikon camera and our mobile phones.
(Apparently in 2019 5544 pictures)
Some stats
757 20190803 - on a single day (Holiday)
Average pictures per month

Besides android pictures being automatically uploaded to our nextcloud, I’m using some apps and scripts to get pictures and movies stored on my fileserver. (bash scripts/andftp)
For sorting those media files, i made a sorting script.
(Today I added a location sorting addition using GPS information stored in the exif information.
- jpg and jpeg (add your own extentions)
- mp4 and mov (for mobile and nikon)
- Sorts by camera model/year/date/location
- tries to extract date from filename when not found in exifinfo
- Sorts whatsapp media
- Sorts Raw
INSTALLING
pip3 install reverse_geocoder
You need python3, exiftool, exiftime and mediainfo
copy below python script in ~/bin/reverse2.py
( need more info? change last print entry admin1/admin2)
[{‘lat’: ‘-39.45556’, ‘lon’: ‘173.85833’, ‘name’: ‘Opunake’, ‘admin1’: ‘Taranaki’, ‘admin2’: ‘South Taranaki District’, ‘cc’: ‘NZ’}]
import reverse_geocoder as rg
import sys
lat=sys.argv[1]
lon=sys.argv[2]
coordinates = (lat,lon)
results = rg.search(coordinates) # default mode = 2
#print (results)
for entry in results:
print(entry['name'] + "(" + entry['cc'] + ")")
And a bash script /usr/local/bin/exifsort.sh
#!/bin/bash
#set -x
reversepath=/home/henri/projects/reversegeo/reverse2.py
