Changing Strategy
GUI to DOMS
• GUI (Graphic User Interface)
• DOMS (Digital Object Management
System)
Metadata (1)
Our basic needs:
• Descriptive metadata structure standard to
describe the physical characteristics and the
intellectual content of an item
• Administrative metadata to describe the
process connected to the digitization and the
digital file itself
Metadata (2)
Factors to consider according to UKOLN:
Purpose of metadata
Attributes of resource
Design of standard
Granularity
Interoperability
Support
Growth
Extensibility
Reputation
Ease of use
Existing expertise
Metadata (3)
Our choise – so far:
• Qualified Dublin Core and PB Core as
descriptive metadata.
• PREMIS as preservation metadata.
• DCMI Type Vocabulary and other standard
schemes as content standard
• XML as mark-up language /encoding format
Conclusion
• Finish the fundamental work before you
start on defining the functional requirements
of a Graphic User Interface
