If for some reason, (heavy overhead tree coverage, indoors, concete canyon, or no GPS at all), Lightroom can give you the capabiliy of adding GPS/GEO tags to your metadata by dragging image thumbnails from the LR "filmstrip" to a known location using the LR map module. If they images have been successfully GEO tagged in camera they will show up in the appropriate location.

However, it seems like Davoud have decided to turn it off rather than taking the batteries out... This software feature must be new to him! :-)) -- teleportation kills |

So turn it off in the menu. It is an extra step, but actually easy to do.

If the 6D have one then I would put the GPS on/off there... -- teleportation kills |

Canon should be totally ashamed of this (and some others too) HP got this basic and absolutely essential thing right in their little digicam that's cheap even for a P&S, so why can't Canon?!!
