fotoxmp
Fotoxmp is a term used in the digital photography community to describe a set of metadata practices centered on the Extensible Metadata Platform (XMP) intended to standardize image metadata across applications and archives. It is not a formal standard with a governing body; rather, it refers to a collection of schemas, conventions, and tooling that aim to improve interoperability of photo metadata.
At its core, fotoxmp builds on XMP by integrating established metadata schemes such as IPTC Core, EXIF,
The concept has appeared in informal forums, open-source repositories, and workflow discussions since the 2010s, where
Implementation and tooling are typically realized by leveraging existing software that already handles XMP and IPTC,
Benefits of adopting fotoxmp concepts include improved interoperability, clearer licensing and provenance, and easier asset management.
