I know that some of this data is viewable in iPhoto, such as latitude, longitude, and altitude, but is there more than this available? More specifically I am wanting to get the direction of the image as well, which is part of the EXIF format. Or does something other than geotagging need to be enabled (something to do with the compass)?
Okay, good news :). The direction is stored in GPS Img Direction
. Here's what I was able to get from a photo taken from an iphone (with location services and compass turned on) using the ExifTool mentioned by @rwong.
