GPS-Info CMM is a Contextual Menu Module designed for Mac OS X. It displays the GPS coordinates of a photo file, and allows you to view that location in Google Earth, Flickr, Panoramio, Google Maps, or MapQuest. It supports a wide range of photo formats, such as JPG, TIFF, RAW, and PSD.

What's new in this version:

The IPTC fields city, state, and country are being displayed, if they are contained in the photo
The Reveal in Google Earth command now "flies" Google Earth to the GPS coordinate, and also uses the tilt, azimuth, and distance embedded in the photo for the display
The GPS coordinate can now also be exported into a KML file
Added SmugMug and WikiMapia to the list

Fixed some memory leaks

Real help when dealing with geotagging - Version: 1.1, 7/17/2008 06:18AM PST

Silvi

I found this gem a few months ago, and I was impressed immediately.

Directly inside the Finder, this shows if a photo has GPS data inside the EXIF record, displays that coordinate, and even "flies" your Google Earth to that location! This is a huge help if dealing with geotagged photo files.

A super cool bonus is the support for URLs that contain GPS coordiantes, for services such as Flickr. Although I don't use Flickr, I do love to use Panoramio and WikiMapia, and the direct link with GPS-Info is incredibly helpful for me. With some fiddling, you can even add your own services to that list!

One feature I would love to see is a KMZ export including a thumbnail of the photo, and eventually the export of more than one file at once into one KMZ...

But hey, it is free, and the devleoper quickly responded to my suggestions...
