This is how to add extra Exif data to Aperture :-)

Folks
Often I need additional Exif data in Aperture - which is not available in the standard install.
For example - exactly which lens did I use - not just a focal lenght - which might be any one of various lenses I have.
Or - which focus point was used?
The list is endless...
If you are interested - go to this thread in dpreview

A neat combination of an AppleScript and ExifTool
Go for it
Brian

Hi,
I'm the "author", if you can call it that, since most of the script is, as someone earlier mentioned, Brett Gross' work. I was the one that glued exiftool to it and got it working with my Aperture setup. I am looking at the various problems that have popped up on dpreview and with personal correspondence and trying to find solutions.
But it isn't easy. As Charles said, the Aperture dictionary isn't helpful in that regard. And with the flexibility that Aperture provides in naming is the curse here. And all the variables with versions, external edits, etc. It gets very complicated. But if you look at the thread on dpreview, someone has possibly found a way to query the SQL database to make it all work smoothly.
It is very easy to do this stuff at import. I am just putting the finishing touches on an Automator action to import the files and add the EXIF data (it will even query GeoNames and add the city, state & country IPTC data if there is GPS data present in the file).

  • How do I export exif data in Aperture?

    It seems that Aperture exports very little data that is of use (i.e., minimal IPTC metadata). Is there a work around to export EXIF metadata? If not, is there a feature request mechanism within Apple?
    Thanks much,
    Tim

    Tim,
    for the GPS info you may look at this sample code from another script of mine:
    try
                                  tell application "Aperture"
      activate
                                            tell im -- any Aperture image
                                                      set longi to value of EXIF tag "Longitude"
                                                      set lati to value of EXIF tag "Latitude"
                                                      try -- remove this "try" if you want a warning if the altitude tag is empty
                                                                set alti to value of EXIF tag "Altitude"
                                                      end try
                                                      try -- remove this "try" if you want a warning if the location tag is empty
      --          set plce to "unknown"
                                                                set plce to value of IPTC tag "Image City" as rich text
                                                      end try
                                            end tell
                                  end tell
                        on error
    -- whatever you want to do in case of an error
                        end try

  • How to add a new data element for existing table filed(Primary key field)

    Hi Experts,
    How to add a new data element for existing table field(Primary key field)
    For this filed ther is no foreign key relation ships and even check table.
    while activating table it is giving message like below.
    can you help any one to solve this and wil steps to add new dataelement for existing primary key filed of a table.
    Check table (NAMING SPACE/TABLE NAME(EX:/TC/VENDOR)) (username/19.02.10/03:29)           
    Primary key change not permitted for value table /TC/VENDOR
    Check on table  /TC/VENDOR resulted in errors              
    Thanks
    Ravi

    Hi,
    Easiest way is to download the table eg into an Excel table (if possible) or text table. Drop the table from the database. Build your table with the new key field. Build the database table again and fill it.
    You can do it also over the database into a new table. Drop the old one. Build the enhanced one and fill it. Afterwards drop your (temporary) table.
    Maybe there are other ways, but this works.
    Success,

    Hi again,
    Several points that can help more:
    1. If you are working with Dot.Net, then I highly recommend read the first link that you got! This is nice and simple coding. Another option is this link which is even better in my opinion:
    http://www.dotnetgallery.com/kb/resource21-How-to-store-and-retrieve-images-from-SQL-server-database-using-aspnet.aspx
    2. As i mention above both link use the column's type image. There are several other option of working with Files. In most of my applications architecture I find that it is better to use a column which let us use any type of file and not an image column.
    In choosing the right column's type for your needs basically your fist question should be if if you want to store your data inside relational database environment or outside relational environment. It is a good idea to look for blogs on this issue. Next
    if you chose to store your data inside then you need to chose the right column type according to your server version. I highly recommend to look for blogs on the differences between those column's types: IMAGE,

    Thank you, you made me go look again and I realised the ones I use on the iPad are under Borders not style and they are on Mac also.  I feel a bit silly but I wouldn't have got there without your prompting.  Do you mean by "create your own"  using the borders and then saving as a style or can you create something that is not in either?

  • How to add Camera Mfg data to EXIF?

    Hi,
    I have a Panasonic GH3 camera.  I would like to add an item that is in the EXIF data of the RAW and DNG file to the EXIF fields kept by LR5. I can see all the camera EXIF data by using the GREAT 'exiftool.exe' created by Phil Harvey. 
    http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/#running
    Just to start, I would like to add the item "Focus Mode" that is in the "Panasonic" section of the EXIF file of the RAW and DNG files.  The Focus Mode field has values such as:  
    Example 1:
    ---- Panasonic ----
    Image Quality                   : Raw
    Firmware Version                : 0.1.2.0
    White Balance                   : Auto
    Focus Mode                      : Manual
    AF Area Mode                    : 1-area
    Image Stabilization             : Off
    Macro Mode                      : Off
    Shooting Mode                   : Aperture Priority
    or, as anoher example:
    Example 2:
    ---- Panasonic ----
    Image Quality                   : Raw
    Firmware Version                : 0.1.2.0
    White Balance                   : Auto
    Focus Mode                      : AF-S
    AF Area Mode                    : 1-area
    Image Stabilization             : Off
    Macro Mode                      : Off
    Shooting Mode                   : Aperture Priority
    I find this data in both the Panasonic Raw files, and the DNG files created by LR5 (and I was very relieved to find that the Focus Mode is carried forward to the DNG files, since I don't keep my old Panasonic RW2 Raw files after they are converted to DNG!).
    So, since this camera manufacturer data *is* in the DNG, LR5 *is* reading it.
    Thus my question:  How can I tell LR5 to inclued the "FOCUS MODE" value in the EXIF data it creates with each photo?
    I hope this is possible?
    Thanks for any suggestions.

    Ok,
    Few things to clarify first :
    1 - How do you define week number ?
    Oracle has 2 different way for week number : normal week number (WW) and isoweek (IW).
    is your weeknumber one of those, or is it something else ?
    2 - Depending on the country the week doesn't start on the same day : in France (as most of Europe I think) first day is monday, where in the USA (as far as I know) first day is sunday.
    the to_char builtin function can display weeknumber :with a as (
    --week 0
    select 0 as weeknum, to_date('30-MAY-2010','DD-MON-YYYY') as edate, 'JJ' as name from dual union all
    select 0 as weeknum, to_date('31-MAY-2010','DD-MON-YYYY') as edate, 'MK' as name from dual union all
    select 0 as weeknum, to_date('01-JUN-2010','DD-MON-YYYY') as edate, 'MK' as name from dual union all

    select 0 as weeknum, to_date('04-JUN-2010','DD-MON-YYYY') as edate, 'KK' as name from dual union all
    select 0 as weeknum, to_date('04-JUN-2010','DD-MON-YYYY') as edate, 'LA' as name from dual union all
