An image’s EXIF metadata.

```
var metadata: [String : Any] { get set }
```

## Discussion

You can provide EXIF metadata captured by your digital camera to assist
in the object-creation process. During object creation, RealityKit can
use data from the EXIF keys listed below.

- `TIFFMake`
- `TIFFModel`
- `TIFFOrientation`
- `ExifBodySerialNumber`
- `ExifLensMake`
- `ExifLensModel`
- `ExifLensSerialNumber`
- `ExifFocalLength`
- `ExifFocalLengthIn35mmFilm`
- `GPSAltitude`
- `GPSAltitudeRef`
- `GPSLatitude`
- `GPSLatitudeRef`
- `GPSLongitude`
- `GPSLongitudeRef`
