Hi,
yeap, as mentioned, exiv2 can be used for that: getinfo ... | awk -f
somemagic.awk | exiv2 -m ... file.jpg
Workable, doesn't even need a compiler, but dissects information from
text which is available, first hand and neatly structured, in c-code
reading hdr/pic images.
Anyway- whatever fits.

Hi Peter,
While the Exif header is a nice place to access such data and isn't that difficult to
read, it's a real pain to write out. The only tool I know of that does so robustly is
exiftool, which is free and well-documented. You can build a script around it such that
you use the "ra_ppm | cjpeg" followed by a call to exiftool to insert the
desired tags into the output. It works quite well.
Cheers,

Hi folks,
not that it matters much for daylighting .... but out of curiosity -
has anyone written a converter from Radiance images to jpeg which tries to
convert the meta information in an hdr file as much as possible to EXIF headers
of jpeg ?
("ra_ppm | cjpeg" works for sure, but the meta info is lost; exiv2 could be
used to put it back in via shell script, sure)
Handling it directly would be neat, wouldn't it ? , if just for keeping track
of images and their history, plus some translatable camera parameters like
effective focal length, details displayed by getinfo. EXIF is quite rich in
tags, see http://www.exiv2.org/tags.html and this metadata seems to be well
supported by images browsers , search engines and the like - if one wants to
disclose the details, which on webserver is doubtful, but in a local archive
useful.
just wondering-
best,
Peter
