Object-Specific Metadata Initiatives
The following resources describe initiatives developing technical metadata for specific types of digital objects:
- Library of Congress Digital Audio-Visual Prototyping Project
Explores aspects of digital preservation for audio and video, including metadata and repository systems design.
- NISO Committee: Technical Metadata for Digital Still Images
This initiative is aimed at defining metadata to describe the capture process and technical characteristics of digital still images for the purpose of short- and long-term management in a digital collection.
- IEEE: Learning Object Metadata Working Group
This initiative is developing a standard for a conceptual scheme that defines the structure of a metadata instance for a learning object. The metadata instance describes relevant characteristics of the learning object to which it applies; these characteristics can be grouped into general, educational, technical, and classification categories.
