In the patch notes for version 11.74
> Enhanced convert_regions.config to support new IPTC Extension 1.5 ImageRegion

How new is this ImageRegion tag?  Is there some publicly available documentation?  I tried looking through the IPTC website but couldn't find any data.

Is there a list of XMP IPTC Extension version 1.5 tags that were added?
* Did you read FAQ #3 and use the command listed there?
* Please use the Code button for exiftool code/output.
 
* Please include your OS, Exiftool version, and type of file you're processing (MP4, JPG, etc).

I expect that the IPTC Extension version 1.5 specification should be released soon (within a month or so maybe).  So it is very new. :)

Only the one tag ("ImageRegion") is added by the new specification, but this is a structure so it results in a number of ExifTool flattened tag names.

...where DIR is the name of a directory/folder containing the images.  On Mac/Linux, use single quotes (') instead of double quotes (") around arguments containing a dollar sign ($).

Thank you.

There was a StackOverflow question about region tagging in images and I was trying to provide sources, but couldn't find the data.  I'll have to keep an eye out.
