\title{A simple metadata format for resource bundles}
\author{Robert Casties, Dirk Wintergrün, Hans-Christoph Liess}

\section{File and directory names}
\label{sec:file-directory-names}
File and directory names should not contain spaces. Allowed characters
in filenames are only the alphanumeric set a-z, A-Z, 0-9, hyphen
``-'', underscore ``\_'' and dot ``.''.
Files and directories with names that contain illegal characters must
be transformed to allowed names. A proposition for a simple
transformation rule is
\begin{itemize}
\item whitespace characters (e.g. blank, tab, cr, lf) are replaced by
hyphens ``-''
\item other illegal characters are replaced by underscores ``\_''.
\end{itemize}
This rule does not provide a reversible mapping to the original
illegal file name and it does not provide a collision-free mapping,
i.e. two different illegal file names might be mapped to the same
allowed file name. Additional precautions for these cases must be
taken.
\section{Metadata files}
\label{sec:metadata-files}
The metadata information is stored in the XML format documented below
in special files in the resource directory. Two forms of metadata
files are possible:
\begin{itemize}
\item a file named \texttt{index.meta} in a directory.
\item a file named like the data file it describes with an
additional extension \texttt{.meta}. For example metadata for the
file \texttt{0001.tif} would be in a file \texttt{0001.tif.meta}.
\end{itemize}
The resource directory must contain an \texttt{index.meta} file with
information about the resource as a whole. Other directories can
contain \texttt{index.meta} files.
Additional information about single data files that are part of the
resource can either be put in \texttt{file} tags in the
\texttt{index.meta} file or in separate \emph{filename}\texttt{.meta}
files for each data file. Information from the directory level file is
inherited at the file level.
\section{Resource format}
\label{sec:mpiwg-doc}
In this description elements marked ``optional'' need not be supplied
by the provider of the resource and may be absent in all versions of
the metadata file. Elements marked ``required'' must be supplied by
the provider of the resource. Elements marked ``deduced'' can be
supplied by the provider of the resource but can also be provided by
automatic scripts later in the process, these elements must be present
in the final file.
File and directory paths in the metadata file use the conventional
Unix file separator slash ``/''.
The outer container element is \texttt{resource}. It has the following
\textbf{attributes}:
\begin{description}
\item[type] sub-type of resource (e.g. ``ECHO'', ``MPIWG'') --
optional.
\item[version] version number of metadata format (currently 1.1) --

\item[description] An informal textual description of the relation
of this resource to the linked resource -- optional.
\end{description}
\item[media-type] \label{tag-media-type} The main media type of this
resource -- required.\\ The main media type can be overridden by
\texttt{media-type}s in subdirectories. Possible types are
\begin{itemize}
\item \texttt{image}
\item \texttt{text}
\item \texttt{audio}
\item \texttt{video}
\item \texttt{data} for other type of data
\end{itemize}
\item[meta] Additional metadata information about the resource --
optional.\\ For a description of additional metadata see below.
\item[dir] Container for the description of a subdirectory -- required
(when there are subdirectories).\\ \texttt{dir} tags should not be
nested. Directories at lower levels are identified by their
\texttt{path}.
\begin{description}
\item[description] An informal textual description of the
subdirectory -- optional.
\item[name] The name of the subdirectory -- required.
\item[original-name] A text string associated with the directory as
original name -- optional. (E.g. if the data in this directory
came from an external source and had a name that had to be changed
according to section~\ref{sec:file-directory-names} but it should
be possible to reference the original name.)
\item[path] The directory path of this subdirectory relative to the
resource's root directory (excluding the directory itself) --
required (may be empty or omitted if the directory is a direct
child of the resource's root directory).
\item[meta] Additional metadata information about the directory --
optional.\\ For a description of additional metadata see below.
\end{description}
\item[file] Container for the description of a file -- deduced.\\

\end{description}
\end{description}
\section{Additional metadata}
\label{sec:additional-metadata}
All elements with \texttt{meta} tags can contain an arbitrary number
of the following additional metadata elements.
\subsection{workflow state}
\label{sec:workflow-state}
All additional metadata elements can have a \texttt{workflow-state}
\textbf{attribute}. This attribute reflects the state of the
corresponding metadata element. The possible values for the
\texttt{workflow-state} attribute are
\begin{itemize}
\item \texttt{preliminary} this information is preliminary. It must
be checked in further workflow steps.
\item \texttt{inwork}
\item \texttt{final}
\end{itemize}
workflow states other than \texttt{preliminary} are part of the
workflow handling of the respective projects.
Metadata elements can appear multiple times with different
\texttt{workflow-state} attributes. This enables metadata versioning.
\subsection{Content type}
\label{sec:content-type}
\begin{description}
\item[content-type] \label{tag-content-type} The content type of this
resource -- required.\\
The content type enables the choice of tools to manipulate and
display the resource. There should be a common list of content
types. For digital documents (books, manuscripts) this would be
"scanned document", for other image data "scanned
images".\footnote{The criterion for documents is a ordered
succession of image files (pages) and equal image size and
resolution throughout the images of a resource.}
\end{description}
\subsection{Language}
\label{sec:lang}
The language of a resource (e.g. a text) can be specified with a
\texttt{lang} tag. Languages have to be described using the
international codes for the representation of names of languages
either in two-letter form (ISO 639-1) or in three-letter form (ISO
639-2). The entire catalogue of languages is documented on the page
\url{http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/englangn.html}
\subsection{DRI}
\label{sec:dri}
The \emph{digital resource identifier} for the resource is specified
in a \texttt{dri} element. Digital resource identifiers are documented
on the page
\url{http://pythia.mpiwg-berlin.mpg.de/projects/standards/dri}.
\subsection{Collection context}
\label{sec:collection-context}
The context of a resource as part of a collection or part of a project can be
specified in the \texttt{context} element. All elements in the
container can appear multiple times.
\begin{description}
\item[context] information on collection or project context.
\begin{description}
\item[link] URL to additional context information.
\item[name] Textual description of project or collection.
\end{description}
\end{description}
\subsection{Bibliographic information}
\label{sec:bibliographic-data}
Bibliographic information is presented in a \texttt{bib} container with
a \texttt{type} parameter, giving the type of bibliographic resource.
The \texttt{type} field can be repeated as a tag in the container.
The format is based on the ECHO scheme for bibliographic data (cf.
content workflow), the MPIWG ``Projektbibliografie'' and the format of
the commonly used program ``EndNote''.

\subsection{Document structure (table of contents)}
\label{sec:toc}
Information on the structure of a document like the division into
parts and chapters in the way of a table of contents is presented in a
\texttt{toc} container.
The scheme allows multiple logical pages on a single page image
as it is often the case with scanned books or manuscripts. The scheme
also allows for ``loose'' numbering schemes with roman, arabic or
other page numbers consecutively or mixed and changes in the numbering
within the document.
The flexibility comes from the fact that no additional assumptions
about the mapping between logical pages and page images are made in
the format. All mapping information is specified by the user.
The logical page numbering or naming that can be presented to the user
is specified in the \texttt{name} tags while the physical numbering of
the page images is specified in the \texttt{index} or \texttt{url}
tags.
\begin{description}
\item[toc] container for document structure
\begin{description}
\item[page] describes a single logical page
\begin{description}
\item[name] the ``name'' of the logical page. This can be any string
like a page number (arabic, roman, etc.) or a special designation
like ``Table 5''.
\item[index] the \texttt{digilib} index number\footnote{The index
number for digilib is the index in the alphabetical order of the
scan file names.} of the scan image of the page.
\item[url] alternatively to the \texttt{digilib} index number the
full URL of the scan image of the page can be used.
\end{description}
\item[chapter] describes a section or chapter of the text.
\texttt{chapter} elements can be nested.
\begin{description}
\item[name] the title of the chapter or section.
\item[start] the beginning of a page range (usually the first page
of the chapter). The \texttt{start} element has an optional
\texttt{increment} attribute to indicate the number of logical
pages on a scan image.\footnote{This information is only needed by
additional tools that try to generate lists of all page and
image numbers.}
\begin{description}
\item[name] the ``name'' of the first page (see \texttt{page}).
\item[index] the index of the first page (see \texttt{page}).
\item[url] the URL of the first page (see \texttt{page}).
\end{description}
\item[end] the end of a page range (usually the last page of the
chapter).
\begin{description}
\item[name] the ``name'' of the last page (see \texttt{page}).
\item[index] the index of the last page (see \texttt{page}).
\item[url] the URL of the last page (see \texttt{page}).
\end{description}
\item[page] alternative (and additional) to
\texttt{start}/\texttt{end} page ranges single \texttt{page}
elements can be used inside \texttt{chapter}.
\end{description}
\end{description}
\end{description}

\subsection{Digital images}
\label{sec:inform-scann-imag}
Image files representing scanned images can have an \texttt{img}
container tag with information about the scan resolution and the size

\begin{description}
\item[img] digital image information.
\begin{description}
\item[original-size-x] The width of the original
image -- required. \\
The unit of measure can be contained as parameter \texttt{unit},
the default is meter ``m''. The width to be considered is the
total width of the scanned area.
\item[original-size-y] The height of the original image -- required.
\item[original-pixel-x] The width of the hi-res scan in pixels -- deduced.
\item[original-pixel-y] The height of the hi-res scan in pixels -- deduced.

on page\pageref{tag-content-type}} ``fulltext''.
The relation between the full text and optional images of
whole pages or parts of pages must be specified in a
\texttt{text-tool} container.

metadata file only state that conditions \emph{should} be observed,
not that they \emph{are} necessarily observed, as the enforcement of
conditions depends on additional technical measures.
\subsection{Acquisition of raw-data}
