Agenda:Metadata data modeling
Review of specific usage questions; see: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1YnunRMNS9T6j7cgsYFxqMPZoTvyGY-ZofZvdFGAykb8/edit?usp=sharing (updated to spreadsheet)
Note: For background on UCSD/UCSB data modeling, see notes from last call: Descriptive Metadata Call 2016-03-02We decided a spreadsheet would be used to collect initial info on pain points in data models
Each issue will have a row and each institution will be a column and can use that space to indicate how they are addressing the issue
column B is for the properties/predicates/fields referred to or related to the issue in column A
e.g. Modeling dates is the issue and the related properties/predicates/fields column could indicate whether this refers to temporal coverage or date information related to events
See http://perio.do/
Over this week and the next we'll start looking at the spreadsheet
Timeline for intellectual development of data model (can be very vague; is this a 2 month, 6 month activity, etc.)
We're still in exploratory stages and pain point discussions will let us know if there is value in developing a model
regardless of the actual deliverable of this endeavor, we can plan on a presentation at the October HydraConnect
may just be a breakout session or proposal to discuss our findings
We need to see what comes of our current work in order to determine what the end product of our work will be
This will enable us to establish a rough timeline
Other items?
Corey noticed that the UCSD model has a lot of BIBFRAME in it
there are also some thing BIBFRAME might be able to cover, but is not currently
experimenting with profiles and extensions to BIBFRAME
e.g. Defines a set of archival material classes and properties as well as other sub-categories
developing in parallel tracks to LoC BIBFRAME
they're interested in gaps that might be relevant to the Hydra community
Corey will share the UCSD model (noting that it's a work in progress) with Zepheira and bring their feedback to our next meeting
The next meeting will be on 3/30/2016 at 1pm EST
