Camera Fields

These 78 columns in [AUROS].[DZFILESYSFILES].[FILETYPE BMP] preserve camera, device, lens, source, software, capture, location, and format-specific metadata embedded in BMP files. Values are copied from the file; they are not inferred.

BMP metadata: BMP has no standardized camera-identification block. Its BMP and color-profile fields describe encoding or color-device characteristics; direct camera fields normally remain NULL. A NULL value means the source file did not contain a readable value for that field.

Location Fields

[AUROS].[DZFILESYSFILES].[FILETYPE BMP] has no Location-prefixed columns because the format defines no standardized in-file location properties.

BMP location metadata: BMP has no standardized in-file geographic or capture-location fields, so no Location-prefixed SQL columns are required for this format. A NULL value means the source file did not contain a readable value for that field.

This format has no standardized in-file location fields.

Time and Date Fields

These 6 columns in [AUROS].[DZFILESYSFILES].[FILETYPE BMP] preserve date, time, duration, time-code, and animation-timing values available in BMP files. Values are copied from the source file and are not inferred from its filename or folder.

BMP time and date metadata: BMP itself has no general capture-time block. The listed temporal values come from the filesystem and, when present, embedded ICC profile or calibration metadata. A NULL value means the source file did not contain a readable value for that field.

File

SQL columnWhat it records
Time - File - Access DateFilesystem date and time when the file was last accessed.
Time - File - Create DateFilesystem date and time when the file was created.
Time - File - Inode Change DateFilesystem date and time when the file record or metadata last changed, when the filesystem exposes it.
Time - File - Modify DateFilesystem date and time when the file content was last modified.

ICC

SQL columnWhat it records
Time - ICC - Profile Date TimeDate and time when the embedded ICC color profile was created.
Time - ICC - Calibration Date TimeDate and time of the calibration described by the embedded color profile.
