ViRR Scope
|
Planning[edit]
The solution ViRR will be planned and developed in several phases, each of them with different focus.
Each phase will be divided into several implementation steps (releases), to allow gradual but ongoing specification and development.
Details about each release can be found below.
Specification and functional prototypes for each release will be available on the Wiki.
Please note that phases and respective releases might be adapted during development life cycle.
Release 1[edit]
R 1.0
- Ingestion (no user interface)
- scans --> derive from file structure a basic skeleton of toc
- bibliographic metadata: MAB mapping to MODS
- structural metadata: eSciDoc container
- derive basic keywords from bibliographic metadata
- Browsing and Display (basic)
- alphabetical sorted browsing tree (multi-volume works, parts and pages)
- display of basic bibliographic metadata (name of book, page)
- display of scans in detailed view
R 1.5
- Original picture size in new window
- Link to DFG Viewer
- Only 1 book for a start (ingestion will be continued successively)

Release 2[edit]
R2.0
- New GUI for bibliographic Metadata (on booklevel, volume level, multivolume level)
- Edit bibliographic MD
- Browsing by physical structure/scans
- URL for each image
R2.1
- Editing
- create logical pagination
- enrich toc skeleton with information on structural elements (i.e. chapters)
- relate pages and structural elements (e.g. page 1-5 = chapter 1)
- add metadata about the chapters, e.g. keywords
- Browsing and Display (enhancement)
- display of all information collected during the editing process
- linking between the structural elements and the corresponding scans
- Ingestion all pages of the 2 books
- Simple User Management
- Log on / log of

Release 2.5 (Pilot Release)[edit]
Scheduled for end of June
- Minor changes in ToC Editor and Browsing page, based on feedback from last meeting (07.05.09)
- Rework of hompage content (by institute)
- Rework of the start browsing page
- Will include Oertel 1-8 and Schauroth 1-3
Automated Ingestion[edit]
(Independent from Releases, depending on efforts for automatic JPEG generation. Latest: September 2009, possibly earlier)
- Extend ingest procedure to automatically generate JPEGs incl. parameter setting for JPEG generation (no crop)
- Will not include cropping of black frames (was done manually by Denise so far, which would be a huge effort for all images)
- Ingest all volumes from collection Virr
- Ingest TIFFs from gwdg
Release 3.0 (Productive Release)[edit]
Scheduled for end of September
- Potential critical improvements after testing phase
- Bookmarkable pages/nice URLs
- Google-enabling
- Help (context-sensitive, tool-tips)
- Disclaimer (institute)
- Copyright/usage info (institute)
- Display Metadata in ISBD style (find detail specification here).

Project Phase[edit]
- Browsing and Display (detailed)
- systematic browsing tree as alternative entrance to the collection (see order in the systematical list of the digitalized works)
- integration of Digilib functionalities (minimum: zoom in, zoom out)
- dynamic generation and integration of "identification stamp" ("Herkunftsnachweis") on the images (whole image, selected part of image) --> new Digilib requirement
- View Scans as thumbnail (multiple scans on one page)
- View actual and following page
- Search
- Ingestion
- Export
- Validation
Further requirements[edit]
- "Genre specific entry mask" for different types of structural elements (list of struct. elements which can follow other struct. elements )
- Nice Urls
