Data Dictionary for Preservation Metadata: Final Report of the PREMIS Working Group

3. Examples

3. EXAMPLES
These examples illustrate both simple and complex applications of PREMIS-conformant metadata. They are as real as possiblethe objects being described do exist and the values for the semantic units are correct and plausible. In some cases the objects exist in a working preservation repository, and metadata used in the repository application were mapped to PREMIS semantic units. Example 1 is a document that is complete in a single word-processing file, ingested into a repository that manages both representations and files. The values of PREMIS semantic units were supplied by mapping metadata actually recorded in the OCLC Digital Archive. Example 2 is slightly more complex, describing a dissertation consisting of one PDF file and one MP3 file. Because MP3 is not one of the repositorys preferred formats, it created a WAVE file from the MP3. In Example 3, the archived object is a tar file that contains within it a file produced by the application QuarkXPress (file extension .qxp), which in turn contains (links to) an Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) file. The source file for the EPS file is a Macromedia FreeHand MX file also included in the tar file. Example 4 shows one way of representing a harvested Web site, where the entire snapshot is considered a representation and each captured page is considered an equal part of the whole. Example 5 shows only the semantic units pertaining to digital signatures, to illustrate how this information might be recorded. In this example, the values are formatted plausibly but are not necessarily real. Example 6 shows PREMIS metadata for two files: a TIFF image and an XML file containing descriptive metadata for the image. Both files are stored in the preservation repository. For additional examples, see the PREMIS maintenance activity Web site at www.loc.gov/standards/premis/.

3. Examples

Example 1: Microsoft Word Document Complete in One File

This example shows a mapping of metadata elements and values used by the OCLC Digital Archive to PREMIS. It does not represent all possible elements used in the Digital Archive, nor does it represent how the elements are stored in the Digital Archive. For a list of all OCLC Digital Archive elements see www.oclc.org/support/documentation/digitalarchive/da_metadata_elements/. Metadata in the OCLC Digital Archive comes from a variety of sources. Some is ingested into the Archive with the object. Some is created by the Archive as a result of internal processes. For example, formatVersion is supplied for some format types by the Archive using JHOVE 1.0 software. Some values are not stored in the Digital Archive but can be supplied on output. These are noted as Implicit below. There is no Rights information because OCLC stores the Terms and Conditions outside the Digital Archive.

3. Examples

Example 2: ETD
This example is an electronic dissertation (ETD) stored in a repository called the Florida Digital Archive (FDA). The ETD consists of two files: a PDF and an MP3, which is actually an appendix to the dissertation. Because MP3 is not a format preferred by the repository, the FDA creates a WAVE file from the MP3. On ingest, the FDA will create three Object descriptions: one for the representation (the dissertation as a whole), one for the PDF, and one for the MP3. When the WAVE file is created, the FDA creates an Object description for the new WAVE file and an object description for the new representation, which consists of the original PDF and the WAVE.

Example 3: Newspaper Complex Object, Los Angeles Times

This is a compound object created in QuarkXPress 3.1, a vector program widely used by newspapers for creating pages and information graphics. Rendered within the Quark file is a visual element created in a second vector program, Macromedia FreeHand MX 7.0 and exported as an Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) file for placement in Quark. The Submission Information Package comprises a Quark file, the EPS file, and the native file used to create the EPS. At ingest, a UNIX tar file is created for the three objects (a lot of other events happen related to extracting metadata and PostScript, indexing text, and creation of thumbnail images supporting search and retrieval, but they arent addressed here). The DIP comprises use copies of the original three objects. In this example, these are treated as four separate file objects: the tar file (.tar), the Quark file (.qxp), the Encapsulated PostScript (.eps) and the native FreeHand file (.fh) from which the EPS was derived. The repository does not manage data at the representation level, but the tar file embeds all the filestreams that constitute the representation. The tar file sits in a Sybase database called Mediasphere, and the metadata resides as a text file in a separate, proprietary database called Muscat. The tar file and metafile are linked by their common unique identifier assigned to the SIP. Metadata is structured in the Muscat metafile according to the news media standard known as IPTC. All four formats appear in the format registry PRONOM, but there is a dearth of information about .qxd and .fh in particular. Some of the reasons for this are discussed in Survey and Assessment of Sources of Information on File Formats and Software Documentation: Final Report, by the Representation and Rendering Project at the University of Leeds, www.jisc.ac.uk/uploaded_documents/FileFormatsreport.pdf. About the repository: The Editorial Art Database contains about 26,000 similar complex objects dating as early as 1991. The contents of the SIP are based on a business case requiring retention of native files alongside derivative files and other files necessary for dissemination. This is subject to change in future iterations of the archive because of the difficulty of preserving proprietary vector formats. It is not an OAIS-compliant archive.

Example 4: Web Site

This example is a single snapshot of a Web site harvested by HTTrack on 2003-04-17 and stored on a UNIX file system. Subsequent snapshots of the same Web site exist in the repository. The relationships among the archived snapshots are documented by a METS Aggregator object that has descriptive metadata for the Web site and represents the intellectual entity. This Web site belongs to the Womens Division of the All Progressives Grand Alliance Party in Nigeria. It consists of a Flash-enhanced splash page which functions as an entry to a non-Flash home page. This is a site containing eight HTML pages and two linked Microsoft Word documents. For brevity, the example shows metadata for only two of the HTML pages and a few linked images and Flash files. All files that are necessary to render the page are handled as equivalent in terms of hierarchy with one file designated as the root of the others in the metadata for the representation. The representation of the Web site snapshot as a whole includes a number of files: the entry page with its domain URL as its identifier and all related objects with relationship has part. The files that make up the Web site each have metadata with an is part of relationship to the Web site. Although there are reciprocal relationships in this example, a repository might choose to explicitly encode the relationship one way or the other, i.e. either in the metadata for the representation with has part for each file object or in each file object with is part of for the representation. There are several other ways a Web site could be modeled. For example, there could be a representation object for each page included in the site in addition to a representation for the Web site as a whole, with all files having an is part of relationship to the representation and one file designated as root object. For more information and for diagrams illustrating these options, see Preservation metadata for Web sites and Web pages, page 6-4.

Notes: signer: The preservation repository chose to use the company name of the signer. signatureInformation: Made up for this example. The repository has a shorthand for representing successive transformation on content before hashing. The example T1=C1 should be take to mean the first transformation is by canonicalization algorithm 1, which is presumably documented elsewhere. Second and subsequent tranformations could be indicated with T2= etc. signatureProperties: The repository records only the date/time of signing. keyValue: The repository uses an XML-structured value for DSA keys. The same structure could as easily have been represented by defining local subcomponents of the semantic unit keyValue. keyVerificationInformation: The base64 representation of an X509 certificate. The certificates reformatted content in XML is:
