Function Definitions

coord2decimal(parameter 1, parameter 2)

              Function converts degrees, minutes and seconds to decimal. Returns a float.

                This Function has two parameters
                - parameter 1 is an argument of a list of floating point numbers.
                  this list either has 2 or 3 elements.
                  An example of the list with 2 element is:
                    [45.0, 45.1234]
                  the first element is degrees the second element is minutes.
                  An example of the list with 3 elements is
                    [45.0, 44.0, 55.1234]
                  the first element is degrees the second element is minutes and
                  the third element is minutes.
                - parameter 2 is a string of one of the following:
                    'N', 'S', 'E', 'W'
                  indicating what part of the world, for either Latitude or Longitude.

            decimal2Degree(parameter)

                    Converts decimal coordinates to degrees, minutes, seconds and determines the quadrant

                            Function takes one parameter a tuple or list of two elements containing floats.

getGPSData(parameter)

    Function returns a dictionary of GPS Data, with the following keys: 'Latitude', 'Longitude', 'UTC-Time', 'Date', 'Altitude'

    Function takes one parameter, a string argument of a path to filename of an image.

getRawData(parameter)

    Function returns a dictionary of GPS ExifTags extracted by ExifRead.

    Function takes one parameter, a string argument of a path to filename of an image.

            stripData(parameter 1, parameter 2)

                    Function that takes a JPEG Image and strips the GPS Exif Data and saves a new image without the Exif data.

                            Function takes two parameters one a string of the filename of the image to strip, the second parameter a string of the new file name.

            modGPSData(parameter 1, parameter 2, parameter 3, parameter 4)

                    Function that takes a JPEG Image and modifies the Latitude, Longitude and Altitude of the Image.

                            Function takes three required parameters and one optional parameter.
                                    - parameter 1 is a tuple or list of coordinates containing floats between -180 and 180.
                                    - parameter 2 is a string of the filename for the image to modify
                                    - parameter 3 is a string of the new filename for the image to save
                                    - parameter 4 is optional parameter of integer for the altitude in meters
