Possible Improvements[edit]

Please put all comments concerning new functionalities on Talk: Imeji Functionalities .

Glossary[edit]

  • Metadata profile or metadata set is used to define the concrete set of terms used by a collection to describe the collection images
  • Namespaces are used to describe collections of URIs assigned to properties, classes and encoding schemes.
    • Would reccomend to use glossary similar to DCMI-Namespace Glossary
    • Translated, the following glossary could be used (note: eSciDoc we can replace with MPDL or anything else):
  • term - A property (element), class, vocabulary encoding scheme, or syntax encoding scheme.
  • URI - A Uniform Resource Identifier [URI] or Internationalized Resource Identifier [IRI].
  • eSciDoc term URI - The URI that identifies a term.
  • term name - A unique token assigned to a term (e.g. for all DCMI terms, the term name is appended to a DCMI namespace URI to create the eSciDoc term URI.
  • eSciDoc term URI - The URI for a term that is declared and managed by eSciDoc.
  • term label - A human-readable label assigned to a term.
  • eSciDoc namespace - A collection of eSciDoc term URIs where each term is assigned a URI that starts with the same 'base URI'. The 'base URI' is known as the eSciDoc namespace URI. (Note that an eSciDoc namespace is not the same as an 'XML namespace').
  • eSciDoc namespace URI - The URI that identifies a DCMI namespace.
  • eSciDoc term declaration - machine-processable representation of one or more eSciDoc terms, expressed in a schema language (RDFS, XSD).
  • metadata record - instantiated descriptions (description sets) about one or more resources e.g. image and an author - into XML, RDF/XML etc.
  • description - a set of statements about a single resource e.g. image only or author only.
  • description set - a set of more descriptions.

Note that the Metadata records can use terms from several namespaces (not only eSciDoc namespace, e.g. dc, dcterms, kml etc.)

New small Imeji description[edit]

English[edit]

Imeji is an eSciDoc application of the Max Planck Digital Library to archive and manage scientific image-data.

To enable the management of divers image data types, Imeji defines a specific metadataset for every collection (individually configurable of different data types like text, numbers, controlled vocabulary or geodata). Core functionalities are the simple and fast upload of the image data, a metadata editor optimized for huge amounts of images as well as a the provision of a collaborative working environment. As an eSciDoc application Imeji profits from core services like long term archiving, interoperability and data dissemination.

Deutsch[edit]

Imeji ist eine eSciDoc Anwendung der Max Planck Digital Library für wissenschaftliche Bilddatenverwaltung.

Mit Imeji können Wissenschaftler eigene Bildsammlungen und Alben erstellen. Um unterschiedlichste Bildtypen verwalten zu können, definiert Imeji für jede Sammlung ein spezifisches Metadatenprofile welches die Bilder der Sammlung durch Metadaten verschiedenen Typs (z.B. Text, Zahlen, kontrollierte Vokabularien, GeoDaten , URIs) beschreibt. Schwerpunkte der Anwednung sind das Verfahren zur Erstellung von Sammlungen durch einfaches und schnelles Hochladen der Bilddaten, optimierte Metadateneditoren für große Bildermengen sowie eine anschauliche Darstellung der Metadaten und die Unterstützung kollaborativer Arbeit (z.B. Das Teilen und Zusammenarbeiten an Sammlungen und Album, verschiedene Nutzerrollen). Als eSciDoc-basierte Anwendung bietet Imeji alle wichtigen Elemente für die Langzeitarchivierung, Interoperabilität und Dissimenation.
