This page gives a short overview of all imeji functionalities. <br/>
[[Category:Imeji_Content_moved|Functionalities]]
The detailed functional specifications can be found [[Imeji_Functional_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 items to the collection
#* via selecting one or several single items
#* via selecting one folder
# Assignment of metadata to items
#* Automatic extraction and assignment of technical metadata
#* Defining of an item set for batch editing of descriptive metadata via filtering and sorting mechanism
#* Editing of the descriptive metadata of a single item
# Releasing the whole collection (make it visible for all users)

# Definition
#* A collection has exactly one metadata profile
#* A collection has exactly one creator, but can have multiple '''editors''' (people who are allowed to assign metadata values and upload items) --> 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)
#** one or several labels
#** a language tag for each label
#** a menu to select cardinality (unique, multiple)
#** (optional) the possibility to define a small controlled vocabulary based on free text fields (strings)
#** The order of metadata statements can easily be changed with drag&drop
# Version control will not be provided for the metadata profile
#* Therefore a metadata profile will be unique for each collection, no possibility to use it for more than one collection
#* metadata profiles do not have an own release work flow as they inherit the collections work flow

# Item upload
## Web upload (upload items for one collection)
##* Easy Drag&Drop, via selecting one or several items
## Upload of external resources via URL
# imeji does not make any restrictions on the file types for upload. The sysadmin might exclude some formats due to security reasons.
# Thumbnails and web resolution are automatically generated by imeji. If imeji can not create a preview for unknown formats, a default image will be used. The original data will always be accessible!
# The formats which imeji can handle are: http://www.imagemagick.org/script/formats.php
# Automatic extraction of technical metadata (IIO (java) output)
#* Technical metadata will be displayed only in xml (via link)
