Some cell phones embed GPS and location information.

Many digital cameras also do this. 

User settings allow or disallow it is a part of the compression standard

Subject: Hacking Pictures?

I was speaking to someone from DHS (not a tech) and he was telling me that
there are applications that can "look" at a picture taken from a cell phone
and can get the location of where the picture was taken.  Is this true?  If
so, can someone provide more information?  If this can be done, people
posting pictures from their cell phones to social sites should be aware of
this...

Thanks - Steven
