MediaTopic ID Name (en-GB) Definition (en-GB)
http://cv.iptc.org/newscodes/digitalsourcetype/digitalCapture Digital capture sampled from real life The media was captured from a real-life source using a digital camera or digital recording device
http://cv.iptc.org/newscodes/digitalsourcetype/computationalCapture Multi-frame computational capture sampled from real life The media is the result of capturing multiple frames from a real-life source using a digital camera or digital recording device, then automatically merging them into a single frame using digital signal processing techniques and/or non-generative AI. Includes High Dynamic Range (HDR) processing common in smartphone camera apps.
http://cv.iptc.org/newscodes/digitalsourcetype/negativeFilm Digitised from a negative on film The media was digitised from a negative on film or other transparent medium
http://cv.iptc.org/newscodes/digitalsourcetype/positiveFilm Digitised from a positive on film The media was digitised from a positive on a transparency or other transparent medium
http://cv.iptc.org/newscodes/digitalsourcetype/print Digitised from a print on non-transparent medium The media was digitised from a printed non-transparent medium
http://cv.iptc.org/newscodes/digitalsourcetype/minorHumanEdits (retired) Original media with minor human edits (retired) Minor augmentation or correction by a human, such as a digitally-retouched photo used in a magazine (retired)
http://cv.iptc.org/newscodes/digitalsourcetype/humanEdits Human-edited media Augmentation, correction or enhancement by one or more humans using non-generative tools
http://cv.iptc.org/newscodes/digitalsourcetype/algorithmicallyEnhanced Algorithmically-altered media Modification or correction by algorithm without changing the main content of the media, initiated or configured by a human, such as sharpening or applying noise reduction
http://cv.iptc.org/newscodes/digitalsourcetype/softwareImage (retired) Created by software (retired) The digital image was created by computer software (retired)
http://cv.iptc.org/newscodes/digitalsourcetype/digitalArt (retired) Digital art (retired) Media created by a human using digital tools (retired)
http://cv.iptc.org/newscodes/digitalsourcetype/digitalCreation Digital creation Media created by a human using non-generative tools
http://cv.iptc.org/newscodes/digitalsourcetype/dataDrivenMedia Data-driven media Digital media representation of data via human programming or creativity
http://cv.iptc.org/newscodes/digitalsourcetype/trainedAlgorithmicMedia Created using Generative AI Digital media created algorithmically using an Artificial Intellgence model trained on captured content
http://cv.iptc.org/newscodes/digitalsourcetype/algorithmicMedia Pure algorithmic media Media created purely by an algorithm not based on any sampled training data, e.g. an image created by software using a mathematical formula
http://cv.iptc.org/newscodes/digitalsourcetype/screenCapture Screen capture A capture of the contents of the screen of a computer or mobile device
http://cv.iptc.org/newscodes/digitalsourcetype/virtualRecording Virtual event recording Live recording of virtual event based on Generative AI and/or captured elements
http://cv.iptc.org/newscodes/digitalsourcetype/composite Composite of elements Mix or composite of several elements, any of which may or may not be generative AI
http://cv.iptc.org/newscodes/digitalsourcetype/compositeCapture Composite of captured elements Mix or composite of several elements that are all captures of real life
http://cv.iptc.org/newscodes/digitalsourcetype/compositeSynthetic Composite including generative AI elements Mix or composite of several elements, at least one of which is Generative AI
http://cv.iptc.org/newscodes/digitalsourcetype/compositeWithTrainedAlgorithmicMedia Edited using Generative AI Augmentation, correction or enhancement using a Generative AI model, such as with inpainting or outpainting operations
