This is getting really technical, sorry if I'm exhausting this thread!
The EXIF data is always stripped on upload by IMGUR, so you will never find any of that with the BikeTag images. We want to save only the GPS coordinates from that data and we want to save it to the "found tag" only so that we can build the map/leaderboard. To ensure quality data we have to supplement this with a map to the end user on upload ("Is this really where you are? --> drop a pin on the map") and then we also have to add the appropriate checkboxes and GDPR notices.
Our progression of features has been slow with our existing communities, so things like this are a natural next step for us. I don't know how that would translate to these other forums and games that have gone stale, but maybe?
If anyone is interested in helping out/participating with our history efforts, dev projects, or even using the BikeTag app for your games here reach out to me.

Leaving the EXIF data in your upload is a little amateurish. You are supposed to identify the tag from the photo and clues, not by looking up the coordinates.
