Hi Javier, 

As noted in my previous response, I was wrong about gdal_translate - it 
actually does transfer the XMP tags from the input to the output, as XMP tags. 
It is a subsequent call to gdalwarp that drops the XMP tags. 
I am running gdal 3.5.0 

Thanks 
Tom

Subject: Re: [gdal-dev] gdal_translate drops XMP exif tags 

Which version of GDAL are you using? 
in [ https://gdal.org/programs/gdal_translate.html | 
https://gdal.org/programs/gdal_translate.html ] there is an option, "-noxmp", 
since GDAL 3.2. Without that option it should keep them. If I remember 
correctly, the XMP tags are copied as proper XMP, not as GDALMetadata, with 
TIFF files. 

An example with "gdalinfo -mdd all" for input and output may help.

gdal_translate output .tif file does not contain XMP tags that were present in 
the input .jpg file. 
The output file contains many of the input EXIF tags, aggregated as the 
GDALMetadata tag, but not the XMP tags. 
Why does gdal_translate remove XMP tags - is there an option to preserve them? 

Thanks
