Exif is a format for storing metadata in image files. A table of Exif data is presented in Metadata section of file pages such as this one. The tags are summarized here and described in further detail in the full specification document.

Date (does not generally include time unless recorded in XMP) that GPS measurement was taken, in UTC. Since often this is at the same date as photo was taken, this is sometimes more reliable than Exif-datetimeoriginal (“Date and time of data generation”).
