ExifTool Key Viewer

Reading and writing of metadata in PhotoLinker is done using Phil Harvey's open source ExifTool [queensu.ca]. ExifTool is a command-line application and perl library that supports many different types of metadata including EXIF, IPTC and XMP. The metadata key-value pairs returned by ExifTool are mapped in many-to-one relationships to tags found in PhotoLinker's metadata editor using the rules established by the Metadata Working Group.

PhotoLinker provides an ExifTool Key Viewer which shows all raw key-value pairs read from the photo and sidecar files as well as the proposed changes to be written back to the files.
