After a long wait, I've finally integrated @xvidun's feature of automatically placing images on a MapKnitter map if they have GPS EXIF metadata -- that is, if they've been taken from a smartphone or camera with a GPS. I implemented only placement in latitude/longitude so far, but we should be able to expand this to figure out rough compass heading and altitude with a bit of extra work.
To use this new feature, just drag images which have GPS EXIF data in them onto a MapKnitter map, then click "Auto-place with GPS". MapKnitter does the rest!

I was very excited to try this, but MapKnitter gave an error because I did not enter a lat and lon for the map. That seemed to defeat the purpose.

Ah, you do have to create a map first. Then you can start dragging in images. Do you think that could be more clear?
