    780 <Text id="images-gps-1a">Since the images are organised by folder, we can easily assign <i>folder-level</i> metadata to the images which will help with classifying them. In the <b>Enrich</b> panel, select the eiffel-tower folder, and in its <b>dc.Title</b> field type <i>Eiffel Tower</i>. Since this metadata is assigned at folder level, it is inherited as <b>dc.Title</b> metadata by all the images in the folder. Now select each of the remaining folders in turn, and assign the appropriate values for their <b>dc.Title</b>: <i>Musée d'Orsay</i>, <i>Parc de Luxembourg</i> and <i>Panthéon district</i>, respectively.</Text>

In the <b>Enrich</b> panel, expand the <b>eiffel-tower</b> folder and select the first image. Scroll down to see the metadata extracted during the building process. Among the extracted metadta, you will find several pieces of Latitude and Longitude metadata, which we will be taking advantage of: ex.LatShort, ex.Latitude, ex.LngShort and ex.Longitude. Greenstone has a map view that can make use of this location metadata to present the images.</Text>
