The Big Picture Description

The Big Picture is a Python Exif/IPTC reader and writer for JPEG en TIFF files. The Big Picture is a Python Exif/IPTC reader and writer for JPEG en TIFF files.The Big Picture is an early attempt for a Python library to read and write Exif and IPTC metadata from and to JPEG and TIFF files. It is in a very early stage. This library is fallout from the Happy Camel project, a tool to correlate GPS data with digital photo's.StatusCurrently, The Big Picture is in a alpha stage, which basically means that I have succesfully used it on a few example pictures. There is a first alpha release, and the bleeding-edge code is in Subversion. There is support for reading and writing Exif and IPTC metadata in Jpeg and Tiff files, and Jpeg comments. The basic structure is there, but a lot of work is required to make sure all checks are in place for reading, writing and setting tags. Furthermore, I'm still compiling the tag libraries with all their requirements (luckily I can peek at Exiftool's documentation.If you're interested in using this library, please bear in mind that, currently, it might invalidate your images! The good news is that the files themselves are untouched, and alterations are only written to copies.What's New in This Release:· This is the first alpha release, which means the basic architecture is there and that everything is working, but that errors will probably arise.
