Metadata - Teledyne FLIR A68 Series User Manual

Metadata

Along with each image, the A68/A38 camera can optionally output metadata associated
to that image. Metadata is appended to the image data:
To accommodate the metadata information the image buffer height (allocated by the
host application) must be increased by 2 lines (buffer height = image height +2). For
example, if the image size is 640 x 480, the allocated buffer height is 482.
To append metadata to the image buffer the Metadata Active feature, available in the
Metadata Controls category, must be set to True (ChunkModeActive = True).
In addition, the Metadata Enable feature, available in the GigE Vision Transport Layer
category, must be set to True (GevSCCFGExtendedChunkData = True).
