I'm using the Media and File Entity modules to store images. I want to extract the EXIF GPS latitude and longitude and save that in a Geofield. I can add a Geofield to the image File Type. The widget is set to "Geocode from another field". The option list to select the field to Geocode from does not include the file (image) as an option.
This works ok if I add a media File to a content type. When adding a Geofield the option list for the field to Geocode from displays the media File as an option.

socialnicheguru commentedWhen you are adding a geofield to the file entity type at admin/structure/file-types/manage/image/fields, the file is a custom field and thus not available to geocoder.
