Archiving and management of digital images based on an embedded metadata framework
Cjien-cheng Liu, Chao‐Chen Chen · International Conference on Dublin Core and Metadata Applications · 2009
Digital image files and metadata are critical functionally-related components of digital archiving and management. However, as digital image files and their metadata are usually independent, applications dealing with them have proven to be relatively complicated. This research attempts to develop metadata storage and exchange through extended techniques of embedded metadata, in order to combine information about files with the files themselves and further extend and control other related information. An Embedded Metadata Framework (EMF) structure will be planned as a reference platform for development of embedded metadata in the digital archive system. Finally, remaining problems to be overcome in such applications will be identified for future research.
