    Bulk Geotag DJI Drone Photos — Free Online

    DJI drones (Mavic 3, Air 3, Mini 4 Pro, Avata) embed GPS automatically — but coordinates drift, get stripped by Lightroom/Photoshop on export, or are missing on indoor flights. Bulk geotag to correct or restore GPS across an entire flight in 60 seconds.

    Supports: JPEG, DNG (RAW) • DJI drones log GPS automatically, but it can drift, be stripped by editors, or be wrong on indoor/manual flights.

    How to Bulk Geotag DJI Photos

    1. 1

      Export the flight log (optional)

      For precise per-photo positioning, export the .DAT or .CSV flight log from DJI Fly or Airdata, then convert to GPX. See the [drone GPX guide](/gpx-sync/drone) for full instructions.

    2. 2

      Import drone photos

      Copy JPEG and DNG files from your microSD or DJI Fly download folder to your computer.

    3. 3

      Drop into Geo-Tag-It Bulk mode

      Drag the folder, attach a GPX from the flight log, or pick the takeoff location for the whole batch.

    4. 4

      Download geotagged ZIP

      GPS coordinates (lat, lon, altitude) are written into EXIF — ready for mapping, surveying, or real estate aerials.

    Built for DJI Shooters

    Works with DJI JPEG straight from microSD or DJI Fly
    GPX sync from converted DJI flight logs (Mavic, Air, Mini, Avata, Inspire)
    Preserves altitude data — critical for 3D mapping and surveying
    Restores GPS stripped by Lightroom, Photoshop, or social exports
    Bulk geotag construction, real estate, and survey flights at once
    Free, browser-based — no Pix4D or DroneDeploy subscription needed

    Why DJI Shooters Geotag in Post

    Native GPS is unreliable

    DJI bodies depend on phone-paired GPS logging that frequently disconnects, drains battery, or simply isn't enabled.

    Fix entire archives at once

    Bulk geotag retroactively — apply a single shoot location to a wedding, or sync a GPX to a travel set.

    Zero quality loss

    GPS is written into EXIF only. Image pixels are byte-for-byte untouched, so client deliverables stay pristine.

    DJI Bulk Geotagging FAQ

    Why would I need to bulk geotag DJI photos if they already have GPS?

    Three common reasons: (1) edited photos lose GPS when re-exported from Lightroom or Photoshop, (2) GPS drift on long flights creates inaccurate coordinates that need correcting, (3) indoor or manual flights with GPS off produce photos with no location data.

    Can I bulk geotag DJI DNG RAW files?

    DNG natively supports EXIF GPS, but workflow varies. The safest bet is to geotag the JPEG sidecar (DJI shoots JPEG+DNG together by default) or convert DNG to JPEG first, then bulk geotag.

    How do I get a GPX from my DJI flight log?

    Upload your .DAT or .txt flight log to Airdata UAV — it exports a GPX you can drop into Geo-Tag-It. Full walkthrough in the [DJI drone GPX sync guide](/gpx-sync/drone).

    Will geotagging affect my Mavic 3 ProRes or RAW video?

    This tool only handles photos (JPEG/HEIF). Drone video metadata is a separate workflow — for photos in your video shoots, bulk geotagging works perfectly.
