PhotoStructure libraries are set up this way, except you can choose to either keep all your assets where they were, or import them into a single, deduplicated directory structure.
The SQLite database schema is commented and straightforward, and migrations between versions are humanly readable (if you want to see exactly how the schema evolves).
I've open-sourced much of the code, but know that I'm hoping it can pay for rent some day soon. The current beta release is free in exchange for feedback. The next version will have both free and paid tiers.

HEIV/HEIC typically contains one or more lossy, compressed images, much like JPEG.
CR2, NEF, ARW, ORF and DNG formats are all "raw" lossless formats that directly store sensor data along with metadata.
They're for very different use cases.
