The clever thing is that if the time on the iPhone is synchronised to a camera and you use a Mac there's a program called HoudahGeo that will update the DNG's EXIF data with the location of where they were taken and so allow you to see the spot in Google Maps. I'd expect the program works with other devices. In fact the help text says... " HoudahGeo may download track logs from a wide variety of GPS devices. For use with other devices, you will need vendor supplied or third party software to download the track log to your computer. HoudahGeo can read track logs in the GPX, NMEA, Sony LOG, TCF and many CSV formats."
