This page gives a short overview of all Imeji solution functionalities. <br/>
[[Category:Imeji_Content_moved|Functionalities]]
The detailed functional Specifications can be found [[Faces_Specification|here]].
 
== Standard User Workflow ==
 
'''Upload content'''
# Creation of a collection with collection metadata
# Assignment of a metadata profile to the collection
#* via using an already defined profile as template
#* via creating a new profile
# Upload of pictures to the collection
#* via selecting one or several single picture
#* via selecting one zip file [Not implemented yet]
#* via selecting one folder
# Assignment of metadata to pictures
#* Automatic extraction and assignment of technical metadata
#* Defining of a picture set for batch editing of descriptive metadata via filtering and sorting mechanism
#* Editing of the descriptive metadata of a single picture
# Releasing the whole collection (make it visible for all users)

# Definition
#* A Collection has exactly one metadata profile
#* The relation between collection and metadata profile is 1-1 (that means neither a collection nor a metadata profile can exist without the other)
#* A Collection has exactly one creator, but can have more '''editors''' (people who are allowed to assign metadata values and upload pictures) --> the creator automatically has the editor role for his collection
#* A collection has one entry point
# Create/edit collection (edit the metadata values)
# Delete/release/discard collection
# Display of collections
#* List of all published collections together with the most relevant metadata values

# Definition
#* A metadata profile always belongs to a collection
#* The user either can create a new metadata profile for a new collection or use an already available one as template.
# Edit metadata profile
#* Each metadata consists of
#** one type (a list with several types will be provided, e.g. date, geonames, string, integer, cone-person, tag)
#** one or several labels
#** a language tag for each label
#** a menu to select cardinality (unique, multiple)
#** '''[Not implemented yet]''' a menu to select the obligation (mandatory/optional)
#** (optional) the possibility to define a small controlled vocabulary based on free text fields (strings)
# Version control will not be provided for the MD profile
#* Therefore a MD profile will be unique for each collection, no possibility to use it for more than one collection
#* MD profiles do not have an own release workflow as they are always connected to one collection and its workflow

# Picture upload
## Web upload (upload images for one collection)
##* via selecting one or several pictures
##* '''[Not implemented yet]''' via selecting a zip
## '''[Not implemented yet]''' Desktop upload (upload images for one collection --> for each collection a Imeji Desktop box has to be created)
##* Upload all images dragged and dropped into Imeji Desktop box (a file scan during upload will not be possible for this sort of upload)
##** upload pictures to the local Imeji DropBox and later to Imeji repository
##** inform the user when the images are uploaded Imeji repository together with a report (will be within the ingest workspace)
# Create thumbnails and web resolution and upload all 3 resolutions
# Extract technical metadata (IPTC [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPTC_Information_Interchange_Model])
#* Technical md will be displayed only in xml (via link)
# '''[Not implemented yet]''' Scan filename (this can be part of the web upload or triggered separately after the upload)
#* Define pattern via analyzing one selected filename: how are the different md values in the filename separated (e.g. via ",")
#* Define parsing: which value should be mapped to which metadata from the schema
#* Update items with populated md-record
# '''[Not implemented yet]''' Define visibility, only possible for the whole import, not for individual pictures; but can be changed later manually for each picture
