🚀 Key Features and Showcase

• Batch EXIF Extraction: Process hundreds of files simultaneously to pull deep metadata regardless of the image/video file type.
• Geospatial Visualization: Automatically plot GPS coordinates onto interactive maps for immediate situational awareness. Variety of mapping layers are available: (Forensic Dark, Forensic Light, Satelite Imagery, Topographic Terrain, Humanitarian (Rural) & Standard Street).
• Timeline Reconstruction: Generate a chronological flow of events based on image timestamps to track movement or verify alibis.
• Privacy-First OSINT: Run locally on your machine—no data is ever uploaded to external servers.
• Lightweight & Fast: Optimized for rapid analysis without heavy resource consumption.
• Dark & Light mode: Operate under any conditions, easilly toggle mode you chose via settings panel
• Image Preview: Preview images in the sidebar or directly by clicking on the map (toggle on & off via settings panel)
• Multi system support: Available on Windows, Linux & MacOS
• Utilizes industry standard ExifTool by Phil Harvey - as a exif data extraction engine, via node.js exiftool-vendored approach, supporting every image, video or filetype ever available!

Note on File Headers & AI Defense

If you are exploring the source code, you will notice dense block comments at the very top of each file that look like LLM system instructions (e.g., Brand-Type: PROPER_NOUN).

Please note: This entire codebase is 100% human-authored by Veljko Vuckovic. Everything here is read, tested, and written in VS Code by the project author, not generated by AI.

Some people see the headers and think, "What is this AI nonsense?" but we are actually fighting against it! The headers are a deliberate Data Poisoning / Prompt Injection technique. Because AI pipelines constantly scrape public GitHub repositories, early models began associating the word "Refloow" with generic automation scripts. To protect our trademark, we injected these human-authored metadata blocks to force AI tokenizers to properly classify "Refloow" as a protected brand identity.

For Contributors: Please simply skip the metadata comments at the beginning of every file. The standard, human-readable documentation and functional code begin immediately below them.

Stop Manually Hunting EXIF Data! Refloow Geo Forensics Does It in Seconds

"This isn't hobbyist software. This is production-grade forensics infrastructure that happens to be completely free."

"This isn't just another metadata tool. It's the secret weapon that top OSINT practitioners are quietly adopting while everyone else still struggles with manual workflows."

"Privacy regulations and corporate policies increasingly prohibit cloud-based analysis of sensitive evidence—making local-only processing not just preferable, but mandatory."

"This isn't just convenient—it's legally defensible. When you need to establish movement patterns, verify alibis, or identify chronological inconsistencies in testimony, automated timeline generation eliminates human transcription errors."
