Force image orientation angularjs - angularjs

Question

I have this odd behavior when I upload an image and if this image size has more height than with I get the image rotated 90 degrees.
check this fiddle that's using ngImgCrop and this is the image that I'm uploading
the code of the ngDmgCrop it's pretty standard:
angular.module('app', ['ngImgCrop'])
.controller('Ctrl', function($scope) {
$scope.myImage='';
$scope.myCroppedImage='';
var handleFileSelect=function(evt) {
var file=evt.currentTarget.files[0];
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload = function (evt) {
$scope.$apply(function($scope){
$scope.myImage=evt.target.result;
});
};
reader.readAsDataURL(file);
};
angular.element(document.querySelector('#fileInput')).on('change',handleFileSelect);
});
how can I fix this behavior?

You'll have to parse the exif data in the image header, examine the Orientation tag, and rotate accordingly.
I just solved the same problem with this library: Javascript Load Image
In your app.js
var handleFileSelect = function(evt) {
var target = evt.dataTransfer || evt.target;
var file = target && target.files && target.files[0];
var options = {canvas:true};
var displayImg = function(img) {
$scope.$apply(function($scope){
$scope.myImage=img.toDataURL();
});
}
loadImage.parseMetaData(file, function (data) {
if (data.exif) {
options.orientation = data.exif.get('Orientation');
}
loadImage(file, displayImg, options );
});
};
