Description
When dealing with Southern or Western latitudes and longitudes, which should always be negative (e.g., Belém (-1.455833, -48.503887) in S / W), the EXIF data is not processed correctly. As a result, the latitude and longitude fields are incorrectly set as positive ( using the expression read_exif_latitude(@project_home + '/' + "photo") ).
