+ Precautions.

 The target file extensions are "*.jpg", "*.jpeg", and "*.jfif".

 Photos that do not have location information will not be searched.

 If you specify anything other than JPEG when changing or adding an image, you will be asked if the image can be converted to JPEG at the time of update.

 Only the location information is updated in the photo file, and the marker type and notes are not recorded.

 When saved as XML, the current state is saved, but the location information of the photo file is not updated.

 Google Maps is copyrighted, so please use it only for private use.
