This page gives a short overview of all imeji functionalities.
The detailed functional specifications can be found here.

Standard User Workflow[edit]

Upload content

  1. Creation of a collection with collection metadata
  2. Assignment of a metadata profile to the collection
    • via using an already defined profile as template
    • via creating a new profile
  3. Upload of pictures to the collection
    • via selecting one or several single picture
    • via selecting one folder
  4. 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
  5. Releasing the whole collection (make it visible for all users)

Collection Management[edit]

Imeji Collection klein.jpg
  1. 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 pictures) --> the creator automatically has the editor role for his collection
    • A collection has one entry point
  2. Create/edit collection (edit the metadata values)
  3. Delete/release/discard collection
  4. Display of collections
    • List of all published collections together with the most relevant metadata values

Metadata Profile Management[edit]

Imeji Metadata Profile klein.jpg
  1. 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.
  2. 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
  3. 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

Upload[edit]

Imeji Upload klein 2.jpg
  1. Picture upload
    1. Web upload (upload images for one collection)
      • Easy Drag&Drop, via selecting one or several pictures
