IMAGE MANAGEMENT APPARATUS AND IMAGE MANAGEMENT METHOD
First Claim
1. An image management apparatus comprising:
- an obtaining unit configured to obtain RAW image data and attribute information on a development process for the RAW image data, the attribute information including a parameter set used in the development process performed for the RAW image data, and information capable of identifying a developing unit which performed the development process using the parameter set of the development process;
a search unit configured to search, based on the information which is contained in the attribute information and can identify a developing unit, for a developing unit which is to perform a development process for the RAW image data; and
a notifying unit configured to notify the developing unit detected by said search unit of the parameter set and the RAW image data.

Abstract
A RAW image, a parameter set used in a development process for the RAW image data, and attribute information of the parameter set are obtained, and a development processing apparatus (or development processing software) to be used for development of the RAW image is determined. The attribute information of the parameter set includes information which identifies a development processing apparatus (or development processing software) that performed development. Based on this information, an apparatus or software which is to perform a development process is searched for. The RAW image and development process parameters are transmitted to the detected development processing apparatus or software.
