Frequently asked questions about Image Metadata Viewer
Can I see GPS location data?
Yes, if GPS data is embedded, you can see latitude, longitude, and map location.
What metadata types are supported?
All major metadata standards are supported: EXIF, IPTC, and XMP.
How do I strip location data before posting a photo?
Check here first whether GPS coordinates are present, and if they are, run the file once through the image resizer or format converter. Redrawing and re-exporting the picture drops the EXIF block along the way. Major platforms like Instagram and X strip location on upload, but sending the original file through a messenger or sharing a cloud link keeps the coordinates intact, so those are the cases to watch.
Can metadata tell me whether a photo is genuine?
Metadata gives you clues, never proof. Camera model, capture time and the name of an editing program can narrow things down, but every one of those fields can be rewritten with free tools. The absence of metadata is equally uninformative: most social platforms wipe the whole block during upload, so an empty EXIF says nothing about whether the picture was manipulated.
