#Exiftool specific tags how to#
Stay posted for how to work with unique maker tags. Something I didn't mention before, you can also use the Python subprocess module to interact directly with ExifTool at the command line. Input: tTag('Aperture', '3.4')įor me, this method has been the best for handling image EXIF data. Input: metadata.getTag('Aperture')Īnd set tags too. You can also rewrite and save specific image tags. ('FileModifyDate', '2019:11:04 21:57:01'), A programming example using the ExifTool application and application programming interface (API) is also provided to demonstrate how the Exif toolset can be. ('ExifByteOrder', 'Little-endian (Intel, II)'), I looked up the tag names and find that they are 'ImageHeight' and 'ImageWidth.' I thought I could write exiftool -ImageHeight -ImageWidth > jpgfile > textfile and that I would end up with a text. ('EncodingProcess', 'Baseline DCT, Huffman coding'), I want to create a text file that has only specific tags written to it, for instance maybe image height and image width. ('ComponentsConfiguration', 'Y, Cb, Cr, -'), image_path = "./data/IMG_0073.JPG"īelow is an abbreviated version of the output. Open a Jupyter Notebook and import Pyexif.

I am still working on extracting the unique Maker Note data from the Browning images, but here are my recommendations for working with general EXIF data using Python.įirst, install ExifTool by Phil Harvey and Pyexif, a Python wrapper for ExifTool. With the sequence number and datetime I can uniquely identify each image and group images into events to determine animal species counts. Each image is part of a trigger event and given a sequence number. Be careful with this (remove -overwriteoriginal if you're not sure) and read the documentation first. This command will remove all supported tags from all supported file types in the current directory and all sub-directories. I need to correct some of the datetimes and extract the sequence number. 4 Answers Sorted by: 13 You can do this easily with ExifTool: exiftool -all -overwriteoriginal -r. To refresh, I have images from two outdoor cameras (Reconyx and Browning) and I'm trying to extract and rewrite information tags.
Last week I experimented using different Python packages to work with image Exchangeable File Format (EXIF) data.
