Panoramic images should be seen in all their interactive look-around glory. Unfortunately sometimes the information hidden inside an image that declares it to be a panorama gets mangled or lost, and places such as Facebook and Flickr just show it as a regular static photo. Editing your image or even simply sending it by email or Messenger can strip this vital information out.
Or enter the picture URL. Here you can create links to the metadata page of the specified image URL. Exif Pilot is a simple program that allows users to do just that. Exif Pilot's interface is plain, with a traditional three-pane layout. On the left is a tree-style hierarchical display of folders. Exif Pilot: Free EXIF Editor. Exif Pilot is a free EXIF editor and IPTC editor software. It lets you view.
Exif Fixer helps fix this; it reads the full details from a selected JPEG image, and if the required elements are missing it calculates and adds them for you.

Exif Fixer Online
Step 1: upload an image:
(File sizes up to 15MB work well. Images over 15MB might not be processed. If you have problems try uploading a smaller file.
Notes:
Exif Fixer Online works with JPEG images.
Files up to approximately 15MB are fully supported. Larger images often work but may not load properly. If you experience an error just reload the page and try a smaller file. (This is only about file size; there is no pixel size limit.)
Equirectangular and cylindrical images are supported. If you want to process partial panoramas (less than 360 degrees) you can do this with the Exif Fixer app.
JPEG compression quality defaults to 80% but you can choose other compression/quality settings.
Your images are permanently deleted from the server after one hour.
