Geolocation coordinates embedded in image files are a type of metadata. Metadata for images usually includes details such as the camera model, date, time the photo was taken, and GPS coordinates if available. This information is not part of the visible content but rather additional data stored within the image file.
From Chat GPC "Yes, geolocation coordinates are a form of metadata."
B. Metadata In the case of image files, metadata may include various details such as the camera model, date and time the photo was taken, and geolocation coordinates (latitude and longitude) if the camera supports GPS.
B. Metadata
Metadata or EXIF data which deals with images. From where Metadata IS also a part of images as well and EXIF isn't here. The answer is 'B.' - Log data comes from logs obviously. - Encrypted data AND Sensitive data could come from a steganography attempt but it wasn't mentioned, which also points to it being Metadata as well. I hope this helps someone.
MetaData. inlcuded Geolocation is hidden in a picture. Metadata is that location information contained in another form. aka picture.
