Missing EXIF properties

Post by rmagick »

An RMagick user reports that some of the EXIF properties in his image are not listed. Using 6.4.0. I see that identify -verbose lists most, but not all, of the EXIF properties in the image:

When I list the EXIF data using Photoshop I see additional GPS properties, including GPSVersionID, GPSLatitude, GPSLongitude, GPSAltitude, and GPSMapDatum.

I suppose these are from a later version of the EXIF standard than identify currently supports?

Here's the output from identify. Please let me know if you need any more information. Thanks!

Can you track down the missing (presumably newer) EXIF tags and their associated hex tag number? If so we'll get them into the next point release of ImageMagick.
