    Hi Moose,
    Thanks for the reply. After looking into the OIS app it doesn't look
    like what I want. Right now I use the OSM Tracker for Android to save
    my tracks while hiking.

Ah, I'm an iPhone user, so my apps may not be yours. PC, not Mac, though.

Makes uploading to OSM easy. I've been editing
    the trail maps here locally and keeping them up-to-date. (link below)
    OSM Tracker is very accurate which is perfect for what I am doing. I
    also use other hiking apps like GaiaGPS and Caltopo but their output
    isn't as accurate. I don't think they record a point as often as
    evident in the jagged tracks. I can save a gpx file which would
    probably work to geolocate but I would like a way to batch process a
    directory of image files.
    Another tracker that has been recommended is GPS Logger
    (BasicAirData).  Looks good, good reviews, easy on battery, is free and
    doesn't save or share any personal data as most of the other apps do.
    It would make a good simple tracker to leave on all day on a road trip.
    You mentioned that you use GPSTracker

My bad, it's GPX Tracker, an open source app

and I found several with that or
    similar name name. Which one do you use?
    I've also looked in to Geotag Photos Pro2.
    [1]https://geotagphotos.net/  It might do what I want. An app that
    makes it easy to sync time would be good.  I don't use LR so I need
    another app to do the batch process.

Wish I could help, but I'm a full fledged LR user. Not so much for editing, there it's PS for me. But LR is a fantastic catalog app. Back when, I tried various catalogs, was using the one Adobe bought underpinned with Camera Raw to make LR. It's come a looong way since then.
