Why should I use this image forensics tool?

This analysis tool helps you to find out which meta data like Exif, IPTC, XMP, ICC color profiles, GPS coordinates and Quantization tables are hidden in your images and photos.

This can be useful for security reasons in the field of forensics, but it can also help developers in the field of digital image processing to analyze what compression settings were used when generating the image (e.g. estimated JPEG quality) and how well the compression works (look for PNG compression view).

Also, for commercial sites, it can be useful to check the copyright and licensing notices that may have been placed in the images.

Learn why such statements are most of the time meaningless, understand the technical background, and find out which tool you should use as of today.
