Subject Area Attribute

Tag(0016,002A)
TypeOptional (3)
KeywordSubjectArea
Value Multiplicity2-4
Value RepresentationInteger String (IS)

The location and area of the main subject in the overall scene.

If two values are present, they are the X and Y image-relative coordinates of a location.

If three values are present, they are the X and Y image-relative center coordinates and the diameter in pixels of a circle.

If four values are present, they are the center X image-relative coordinate, the center Y image-relative coordinate, the width in pixels, and the height in pixels of a rectangle.

The coordinate values, width, and height are expressed in relation to the upper left as origin.
