Image Metadata Extractor

View EXIF data from any photo: camera model, lens, ISO, shutter speed, GPS location, timestamps and more. Read metadata privately in your browser.

The Image Metadata Extractor reads the EXIF data embedded in a photo — camera model, lens, aperture, shutter speed, ISO, focal length, capture date and, if location services were enabled, the GPS coordinates where the shot was taken. Photographers use it to check shooting settings after the fact; journalists and researchers use it to verify when and where an image was captured.

All parsing happens locally in your browser: the photo is never uploaded anywhere, which is important given that EXIF data can reveal a precise location. Upload a JPG, PNG, HEIC or TIFF file and the tool lays out every available field in a readable table, including GPS coordinates plotted for quick reference, so you can decide what to keep or strip before sharing the image publicly.

How to use the Image Metadata Extractor

  1. Upload a photo by dragging it in or selecting it from your device.
  2. Wait for the tool to parse the file's metadata block in your browser.
  3. Review the camera and lens details, exposure settings and timestamp in the results table.
  4. Check the GPS section if the photo has embedded location coordinates.
  5. Copy or export the metadata fields you need for a report or investigation.

Why use this tool

Full EXIF breakdown

See camera make and model, lens, aperture, shutter speed, ISO and focal length in one readable table. No need to hunt through a camera app or desktop software to check shooting settings.

GPS location detection

Instantly see whether a photo carries embedded location coordinates, which is essential when vetting images before they're published or shared publicly.

Fully private

The image and its metadata never leave your device, since parsing happens entirely client-side in JavaScript.

Common use cases

What EXIF data actually contains

EXIF is a metadata standard embedded by most digital cameras and phones. It typically records exposure settings, the device model, orientation and a timestamp; GPS coordinates are added only if location services were enabled at the time the photo was taken.

Removing metadata before sharing

If you'd rather strip this information out, re-save the image through the Image Compressor or Format Converter — re-encoding a photo drops the original metadata block, including any GPS tag, without visibly affecting the picture.

Formats and limits

JPG, TIFF and HEIC files typically carry the richest EXIF data, since most cameras write to these formats natively. PNG and WebP files often have little or no EXIF data because many editing tools strip it on export.

Frequently asked questions

What information does EXIF data contain?

Typically camera and lens model, aperture, shutter speed, ISO, focal length, capture date and — if location services were on — the GPS coordinates where the photo was taken.

How do I remove EXIF data before sharing a photo?

Re-save the picture through the Image Compressor or Format Converter. Re-encoding drops the original metadata block, including any GPS coordinates.
