About Image Metadata Viewer
Inspect every piece of metadata embedded in a photo or image file, all without leaving your browser. Upload any JPEG, PNG, TIFF, HEIC, or WebP image and the tool extracts all available EXIF, GPS, IPTC, and XMP tags using the open-source exifr library. The Common Fields section shows the most useful information at a glance: date and time the photo was taken, camera make and model, image dimensions and file size, ISO speed, shutter speed, aperture, and focal length. If the image contains GPS coordinates, they are displayed in decimal degrees with a link to view the location on OpenStreetMap. Fields that are not present in the file are shown as a dash rather than being hidden. Below the common fields, a Show all tags button reveals a full dump of every metadata tag the file contains, grouped by category — EXIF, GPS, IPTC, and XMP. Only categories that actually have data are shown. Use Copy all to copy the complete metadata as a JSON string, useful for logging, debugging, or further processing. All extraction runs entirely in your browser. The image file is never sent to any server. This tool is useful for photographers checking what metadata their camera writes, developers debugging image pipelines, and anyone who wants to verify what personal data (including GPS location) is embedded in a photo before sharing it.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What metadata formats does this tool support?
- EXIF (camera settings and date), GPS (coordinates), IPTC (copyright, captions), and XMP (Adobe extended metadata). Not all images contain all types — the tool shows only what is actually present.
- Why does my image show no metadata?
- Many image editors and social media platforms strip metadata when you save or upload a photo. Screenshots and images created in design tools typically contain no EXIF data.
- Does this tool send my image anywhere?
- No. All metadata extraction happens locally in your browser. Your image never leaves your device.
- What does the GPS View on map link do?
- If the image contains GPS coordinates, a link opens OpenStreetMap in a new tab centred on those coordinates, letting you see where the photo was taken.
