EXIF Metadata Structure

ImageGear for .NET processes EXIF as a metadata format, rather than as a separate image file format.

This section provides information about the following:

EXIF Level Metadata

EXIF level metadata uses the following structure.

Name Id Type Value Type Value Value Length Ignored on save
<EXIF subIFD tags> <EXIF subIFD tag ids>          
"Interoperability" ImGearMetadataFormats.INTEROPERABILITYIFD Tree        
"GPS" ImGearMetadataFormats.INTEROPERABILITYIFD Tree        

Interoperability and GPS IFDs are optional.

See Exif subIFD tags below for the list of Exif subIFD tag names and Ids.

EXIF GPS Level Metadata

EXIF GPS level metadata uses the following structure:

Name Id Type Value Type Value Value Length Ignored on save
<EXIF GPS tags> <EXIF GPS tag ids>          

See GPS subIFD tags below for the list of EXIF GPS tag names and Ids.

EXIF Interoperability Level Metadata

EXIF Interoperability level metadata uses the following structure:

Name Id Type Value Type Value Value Length Ignored on save
<EXIF Interoperability tags> <EXIF Interoperability tag ids>          

See Interoperability subIFD tags below for the list of EXIF Interoperability tag names and Ids.
