kuvaEXIF

kuvaEXIF is a command-line utility designed for reading, writing, and manipulating EXtended Information File (EXIF) metadata embedded within digital image files. Developed to be a flexible and powerful tool for photographers, archivists, and developers, kuvaEXIF provides users with the ability to inspect and modify various data points associated with an image. These data points can include camera model, date and time of capture, exposure settings, GPS coordinates, and user-defined tags.

The primary function of kuvaEXIF is to access and display the EXIF tags present in JPEG and TIFF image formats. It can also be used to add new EXIF tags, modify existing ones, or remove them entirely. This capability is particularly useful for tasks such as batch editing metadata, geotagging images that lack location information, or ensuring privacy by stripping sensitive data before sharing.

kuvaEXIF supports a wide range of EXIF tags and can handle both standard and proprietary tags from various camera manufacturers. Its command-line interface makes it suitable for scripting and integration into automated workflows. The tool is known for its efficiency and its ability to process large numbers of files quickly. It is often used in conjunction with other image processing tools and scripts for comprehensive metadata management.
