Metadata Interrogator

• Grabs any and all possible metadata from a wide range of files.
• Graphical User Interface.
• Completely portable.
• Offline GPS resolving (as of version 0.2).
• Flags potential items of interest (photoshopping, named file author etc.)
• Full set of data tools (subtables, plotting, aggregating etc.)
• Timeline and file comparison tools (as of version 0.4).
• Easy to export data for further analysis/report

Image Interrogator – v0.2 released! - This release has mainly been about smartening up the interface as sometimes it would get thrown off by certain size images, too much metadata, too little metadata and pretty much anything else.

Image Interrogator v0.1 Released - I’ve been relatively quiet for the last few months, and that’s because I’ve been working on a completely new tool for analysing images.
