Exif Metadata Photo Merge
View on Chrome Web StoreChrome will indicate if you already have this installed.
Overview
Did you export your library using Google Takeout only to find a mess of ZIP files, and photos missing information such as the captured location and the time/date it was taken?
Unfortunetly, Google often strips metadata from your images and hides it in separate JSON files. When you move these photos to a new service or hard drive, your timeline breaks, and your GPS data vanishes.
"EXIF Metadata photo merger and organiser" is the all-in-one solution to repair your library. It automates the heavy lifting: extracting zips, matching metadata, merging EXIF data, and organizing your files into a beautiful, searchable archive.
🚀 Key Features
📦 Automatic ZIP Extraction & Pair Matching: No need to manual unzip dozens of files. The extension scans your Takeout ZIPs, finds the scattered photos and JSON pairs (even when they are randomly distributed), and matches them instantly.
📸 Metadata Merging (EXIF): Embeds capture dates, GPS coordinates, and descriptions directly into the JPEG/HEIC files. Your media becomes self-contained and compatible with any photo app.
📂 Smart Organization: Automatically sorts your media into a clean, structured folder hierarchy (e.g., Processed/2024/).
🔄 Incremental Processing: Have a massive library? Process your exports in stages. The extension remembers what you’ve already done, accumulating data across multiple runs without duplicates.
🗺️ Interactive Photo Maps: Generates beautiful, offline-accessible world maps with clustering. Explore your life’s journey through your photos’ locations.
🎥 Video & Album Support: Keeps your videos + Jsons organized alongside your photos and preserves your original Google Photos album structures.
📊 Local Media Database: Generates a searchable JSON manifest of your entire library (paths, dates, locations) for your own future use.
🔒 Privacy First: 100% Local
