Working with metadata overview
Information about your photos, including the types of adjustments applied, information recorded
by the camera, and descriptive information about the photos, is called metadata. In Aperture, you
work with three types of metadata:
•
Exchangeable Image File data: information recorded by the camera and stored in the image
file at the time it was shot, such as shutter speed, f-stop, the time the photo was captured, the
camera model, and GPS data (for cameras that support it).
•
Aperture-applied data: information you add within Aperture, such as a version name, color
labels, flags, keywords, when the photo was imported, the types of adjustments applied to it,
and how and where it was published.
•
International Press Telecommunications Council data: standardized data used by photographers
and media organizations to embed keywords, captions, copyright notices, and other
information in the image files themselves. You can view and modify IPTC metadata
in Aperture.
Note: For more information about working with GPS data in Aperture, see Places overview on
page 131 and View photo locations on page 133.
