What is GeoTIFF?

GeoTIFF is a public domain metadata standard which allows georeferencing information to be embedded within a TIFF file. This includes coordinate systems, projections, and other spatial information. It is commonly used for storing and exchanging geospatial raster data, such as aerial imagery, satellite imagery, and digital elevation models.
