A mingle-mangle of Ideas

 * Improve presentation of single image with info on:
 * number of views of this pic
 * Create world map to visualize geotagged images
 * New automated collection 'The commons' here are all free pics
 * Or ability to filter all commons in the image list
 * Click on person metadata triggers search of all pics were this person is in
 * integration of ISAN (http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISAN) (for audiovisual material)
 * What can we get automatically from techn. metadata of image, do we want to auto fill them in the desc. metadata?
 * creation date
 * author
 * copyright
 * title
 * comment ...
 * Is there a standard for descriptive metadata for media files?
 * Where do we get the metadata
 * From DB (directly from db or from imeji solution) - no set definition! (implicit)
 * From repository (would mean to first implement escidoc data stream)
 * static or dynamic?
 * Which metadata formats do we want to expose via oai
 * dc (mandatory)
 * custom (how do we generate dc from here)
 * technical format (see above)
 * rdf
 * Jhove ?
 * Improve advanced search, e.g.: https://www.google.de/advanced_image_search?hl=de&biw=1920&bih=970&q=sun&tbm=isch
