Metadata Extractor

Extract hidden EXIF data, GPS coordinates, and file metadata

The Metadata Extractor is a digital forensics tool that reveals hidden information embedded within image files. Every digital photograph and many other file types contain metadata — data about the data — that can include GPS coordinates showing where a photo was taken, camera make and model, lens information, exposure settings, timestamps showing when the image was created and modified, software used for editing, and even unique device identifiers. This metadata is invaluable for OSINT investigations: GPS coordinates can locate where a photo was taken, timestamps can establish timelines, camera serial numbers can link photos to specific devices, and software metadata can reveal editing or manipulation. Upload an image file directly or provide a URL to an image online. The tool extracts all available EXIF, IPTC, XMP, and other metadata formats and presents them in an organized, searchable format. If GPS coordinates are found, a direct link to Google Maps is provided for instant location visualization. Used extensively in digital forensics, journalism verification, legal investigations, and privacy audits.
