| The software, based on the eSciDoc infrastructure offers a dedicated metadata management by supporting a non-restrictive metadata schema definition, as simple as liked or as complex as needed.
| | '''For information about the imeji software and the imeji community please visit imeji.org''' |
| | |
| All objects within the imeji software have a unique identifier and therefore can be referenced in publications or reused in other contexts (dissemination). Large collections can be organized in different albums to focus special items of interest.

To avoid confusion when more than one user tries to edit the metadata of the same picture(s) at the same time, the system takes care that always the newest version of the pictures and its metadata is displayed. And this will be the only version that is editable. <br/> <br/> <div align="center">[[File:Imeji-collaboration.png | 400px]]</div>

| == Why imeji? ==
| |
| The specialty of imeji is that is does not only store and share items, but that it also stores and shares the metadata values of the items. Metadata is not just restricted to free defined tags, but are maintained in a standardized manner that allows an advanced search based on metadata profiles. Therefore, items are easily retrievable. Further on, it offers persistent albums which can be cited in publications.
| |
|
| |
|
| == How to use imeji? ==
| |
| We set up a demo environment at: http://imeji.org <br/>
| |
| The browse and search functionalities within public collections are accessible for everyone.
| |
| For uploading items and creating own collections, an account is needed. Please apply for an account at our demo instance by sending an e-mail to the [mailto:imeji-support@gwdg.de '''support'''] mailing list.
