Image Swap Meet

  • Northwestern and DIL: One large compound object for image data streams and a sibling object containing VRA Work type metadata

    • DELIV-OPS datastream stores crop information

    • ARCHV-IMG and ARCHV-EXIF are archive copies of TIFFs only (not for display), they are EXTERNAL DATASTREAMS, external to have different storage strategy for larger files

    • VRA Work object (descriptive metadata)

      • describes the thing that is actually photographed (eg. a building)

      • in UI shows related images using VRA work relationships (i.e.. sculptor, painter)

    • Duke, U of Oregon, and Oregon State interested in using DIL code (and interested in Hydra)

    • Disseminators used to translate requests to the image server (Aware vended software, same library as Djatoka)

    • How does this relate to IIIF?

    • It would be beneficial to make crop tool be IIIF API compliant

      • some of the disseminator terms could not be IIIF but maybe create a mapping from IIIF compliant REST resources to Fedora based disseminator calls

    • Hydra has user groups and permission awareness and make sense to put in at Hydra level?

    • Next steps:  NW document image model and look into IIIF compliancy
