# UTC and Daylight Saving Time (DST)

Geeqie can display the local time at which a photo was taken, adjusted for UTC offset and Daylight Saving Time.

If the image exif data contains the required parameters (see Pre-formatted tags ), Geeqie will use the latitude and longitude to determine which timezone the image was taken in.

The UTC offset and Daylight Saving Time Correction for that timezone, combined with the GPS UTC value, will then be used to compute the correct local time.

This value may be displayed in either the Info Sidebar or Overlay Screen Display by using the parameter formatted.localtime

The timezone for the image may also be displayed by using the parameter formatted.timezone .
