## Python Example

```python
>>> import gpsimage # pip install gpsimage
>>> img = gpsimage.open('<image.jpg>')

# Coordinates Latitude & Longitude in Degrees
>>> img.lat, img.lng
45.413140 -75.656703

# Altitude in Feet
>>> img.altitude
142.04025779

# From 0 to 360 Degrees
>>> img.direction
165.974436341
...
```

## JSON Results

This example was taken from a Android Samsung Galaxy

```python
>>> import gpsimage # pip install gpsimage
>>> img = gpsimage.open('<image.jpg>')
>>> img.json
