IIQ files contain meta data tags following multiple paradigms. Some tags are defined by the Tiff format standard, some by Exif and yet some are Phase One proprietary tags.

This class represents data contained in all such types of tags. See the class :ref:`TagId <doxcsid-struct_p1_1_1_image_sdk_1_1_tag_id>`, that identify all 3 kind of tags.

Each tag has a *type* and a *count*, and some raw data. The *count* is used only to represent vector data types or fractions. (A vector of 2: numerator & denominator.)
