In the current version I can't find a way to add location data to a picture, in the old iPhoto it was as simple as selecting the file or file and type the coordinates or the location name.
MacBook Pro, iOS 8.3
Photos does not support to add or edit Location data.
If your camera does not add GPS tags, continue to use iPhoto for the time being. iPhoto version 9.6.1 does still work well in MacOS X 10.10.3. The update did not uninstall iPhoto, just removed the Dock icon. Just drag it back to the Dock from the Applications folder.
I just came back from a three week trip using my iPhone6+ for my camera (first time without an SLR in my long life!) I was quite pleased with it, and in going over the photos with Photo on my iOS I found that the GPS data is preserved, meaning that when I "get info" I get the map, all the way down to a specific building, and see exactly what church that was or where that sheep was!
I was less pleased with the interaction with iCloud, however. I had photo stream turned on, but not the icloud library. The photos did not synch with my iPad air (in spite of having an internet connection), and I resorted to using Airdrop to copy them. On returning I turned on the iCloud storage. Now I have a couple of thousand of photos on my iPad that I want to delete and just reload from iCLoud because what was in the cloud duplicates what I had loaded on with Airdrop. How do I do that? I tried connecting to my mac and itunes, but that doesn't work anymore for photos!
How can I add location data to a photo with Photos?
