steven,

i have some resources you can look at

http://www.exif.org
- provides some sample file information fron different cameras (if its a specific brand of camera it stamps model#, serial, etc.

http://idlastro.gsfc.nasa.gov/idl_html_help/Getting_Information_About_SAVE_Files.html
- some nasa paper i just ran into.

please note that i haven't done actual testing on this yet. but it has come to my attention before when someone asked me about a file that they generated for a stem cell research software and told me that their admin knew that it was that said person who generated the file.

good hunting,
packetnull

I was speaking to someone from DHS (not a tech) and he was telling me
that there are applications that can "look" at a picture taken from a
cell phone and can get the location of where the picture was taken. Is this true? If so, can someone provide more information? If this can be
done, people posting pictures from their cell phones to social sites
should be aware of this...

Thanks - Steven
