Hi Maik,

Thanks for your quick reply with a lot of details.

Following your advise, I I read carefully the documentation part Metadata
Settings / Sidecars settings
Unfortunally, I cannot understand clearly the metadata parameters that I do
have to apply in order to get what I expect.

Let explain, my picture files are named as following :
1- The original RAW picture : A2400001.ARW.
This picture have geolocalization data* included in the original file* (=
not as a sidecar, xmp file)
For time being, I first create the folder and after I read the new data by
running Tools > Maintenance > Sync Metadata and Database by reading the
data from the image to the DB.
What must be the parameters I have to apply the settings in order Digikam
will be able to create the new data for Country / State / City /
Sublocation / Altitude as tags in DB ?
Is that the good way of working or you advise another process ?

2- After treatment in order to create the JPG file, is named :
A2400001_DxO6.JPG
The software used (DxO in my case) is copying all metadata included into
the new file created (= not as xmp file).
By processing the same way as described above (Tools  > Maintenance etc
...) and following the Digikam settings, will the new created pictures also
included in the DB ?

Else if it cannot work correctly, could you please advise for a way of
working that can fit automatic tags creation in the Digikam DB ?

Thanks in advance for helping me for solving this concern.

Best Regards
*Jean - Louis Joli*
