it was a very helpful course for understanding arcpy using Python. Thanks for the course
It was very elaborative -
Great tutorial. Thorough explanations and easy to follow along!
Only hiccup I came across was my EXIF data was in a different format. Just had to modify a slight bit to the math when converting into decimal degrees.
