Technical details about the format are lacking somewhat. Where are the definitions for the data types that you mention? ie. By "Rational", do you mean a text string with a rational value expressed as the ratio of two integers (like "345/100" for example)? -- this is the way XMP Exif Rational values are stored. And what is a "Double" -- do you allow exponential notation, and if so what is the format, and is the range limited to that of an IEEE 8-byte double? Also, how is "ASCII" different from "XMPText"? How is Short different from a regular integer (is it limited to < 65536)? And for XmpSeq, you should say "Seq of Double" or something similar -- sometimes the type isn't specified. In general, it would be much clearer if you used the same terminology as the XMP specification, and referred to that specification for the details. And an XMP Boolean is typically a string which is either "True" or "False", but you seem to be using an integer for this (with values of "0" and "1"?). And one more thing: What is the namespace URI and preferred namespace prefix? -- these must be defined somewhere but I can't find them.
Hi Phil, Pix4D uses exiv2 to read the EXIF/XMP tags. You can have a look at their website for the data types (https://www.exiv2.org/sample.html)
@...: pix4d can recognize DJI xmp tag (XMP-drone-dji DewarpData). but .I have a question. DJI distortion tag (XMP-drone-dji DewarpData) is customized. If other companies want to save the distortion parameters of their cameras to the photo exif, which tag should be saved to? Convenient pix4d to recognize this tag 。
This tag (Xmp.Camera.PerspectiveDistortion) was introduced above. Is it possible to recognize this tag by pix4D? in short. pix4D is for the distortion parameters of the lens. It can be retrieved from both places. 1. XMP-drone-dji DewarpData, 2. Xmp.Camera.PerspectiveDistortion. Is my understanding correct?
