Abstract

This article discusses the implementation of MPEG‐7 within the Moving Image Collections (MIC) portal. MIC is a union catalog of the world's moving images, as well as a portal to information on the care, management, and use of moving images. The MIC Union Catalog utilizes a core registry schema that is designed to map readily to any metadata schema used to describe moving images. The MIC development team was particularly interested in supporting MPEG‐7 for future non textual digital video indexing applications. An MPEG‐7 application profile and Microsoft Access cataloging utility were developed in order to test MPEG‐7 within the MIC Union Catalog; 400 science digital videos in the Research Channel collection were cataloged in MPEG‐7. The MPEG‐7 records were mapped to MIC and ingested. Draft MPEG‐7 to MIC and MIC to MPEG‐7 maps were developed and are available at the MIC Web site. MPEG‐7 records are available for viewing for any record in the MIC database via a collections explore search within the Archivists' portal. The MPEG‐7 cataloging utility may be downloaded from the MIC project Web site (Moving Image Collections. MIC Cataloging Utility. http://gondolin.rutgers.edu/MIC/text/how/cataloging utility.htm). This article also discusses issues with MPEG‐7 as a descriptive metadata schema, as well as mapping and implementation issues identified in the project.
