A bug in Aperture does not allow you to delete data on the location and time of capture from personal photos
While shooting, modern cameras are automatically adding GPS data to images. Apple's programms iPhoto and Aperture provide this information to features like Places. And since many people are uploading their pictures to the Internet without knowing about this feature, any user can easily see the details of when and where these snaps were actually captured.
Aperture theoretically provides the opportunity to erase this data from pictures before you share them with other people, however, practically in the current version of Aperture this function does not work.
We hope that Apple will fix this bug soon, but for now you can remove the location data only from Aperture's library. To do that, uncheck the "Include location info in exported photos" at the Export section of Preferences.
Aperture includes an all-in-one Inspector that consolidates the Projects, Metadata, and Adjustments panes and lets you switch between them simply by pressing W.
Aperture features a sleek, straightforward and customizable interface with well-located, easy-to-find tabs and toolsets. From import to export, the process is almost automatic, with users only needing to input metadata and make the necessary adjustments here and there.
Aperture gives photographers incredible tools to manage massive libraries, speed through photo edits, make essential image adjustments, and deliver photos online and in print using one simple, integrated workflow. Whether you shoot RAW or JPEG, Aperture lets you get the most out of your photography.
