Great script. I bumped into it because I've been stuck trying to manipulate exif data in iView using applescript alone. It's easy to script the manipulation of annotations data, but it seems really tricky to do so with exif data (within iView). I ran into one script that manipulates the capture date without a seperate tool like exiftool (http://downloads.iview-multimedia.com//scripts/ShiftCaptureDate.sit) but I've been unable to get it to work with altitude, which is the exif info I am seeking to set/edit/add. Anyway, I took your script and modified it to 1) read existing GPS coordinates and then fetch via the geonames web service the cooresponding altitude (via a clumsy safari gui scripting hack). I also modified the script so that it would process all selected items in the open iView catalog. I'm just learning applescript so I'd be interested in improvements. I'll post the script in another next response to this thread. Dane Hi Andrew.

It’s nice now that mapping is baked-right-into Flickr, which means quicker adoption rate, and easier to get going with your mapping (rather than being relegated to various mapping utilities and scripts) [...] [...] Overall it’s a very good user experience.

Also a check to see if exiftool exists and a note if it doesn't (if one just copied the script to another computer or whatever or they forgot to read the directions).
