Comment (by mwsat):

 @joedolson not a perfect but a well working solution can be using ExifTool
 - https://exiftool.org/ - a PERL based library for reading and writing
 metadata. With proper parameters it returns a structured JSON object with
 all the metadata in the image. We from IPTC could help using ExifTool
 properly in terms of metadata reading - but sorry, we are no PHP experts.
