Repository Implementation, Low-Resolution Image Content Model

Input Master

Low resolution JPEG or TIFF images that do not meet the UVa Library 400 or 600 ppi 24-bit color or 8-bit grayscale uncompressed TIFF image standard

Datastreams

  • Static 24-bit color or 8-bit grayscale JPEG preview, 120x120 pixels constrained
  • Static 24-bit color or 8-bit grayscale JPEG screen, 800x600 for documentary images, or 650-850 pixel width range as appropriate to achieve readability on screen
  • No max available, mapped to same datastream as screen

uvaLowRes Image Content Model disseminators, behaviors, and mechanisms

Content Model Disseminator BDef Behaviors BMech
uvaImageLowRes uvaDefault uvaDefault getPreview - returns plain text from DescMeta uvaDefaultLowRes
      getLabel - returns plain text label from DescMeta  
      getDescription - returns plain text description from DescMeta  
      getFullView(pid)  
      getDefaultContent - returns raw xml  
  uvaMeta uvaMeta getDescMeta - returns raw xml uvaMeta
      getAdminMeta - returns raw xml  
      getDC - returns Dublin Core elements in raw xml

      getSizedImage(pixelX, pixelY)  
      getImageViewer(childPid*,parentPid*)  
  uvaOKIImage uvaOKI getAssetDefs(childPid*, parentPid) uvaOKI
  uvaDownload uvaDownload download uvaImageDownload

Recommendation:  All collections that do not currently contain static jpeg preview, static jpeg screen, and Mr. Sid max files should be regenerated to match that datastream model.  When no master is avaialble to meet the image standards, it is possible to map screen and max to the same physical file in the image object to cover the missing files. 

Recommendation: The getDeliveryMaster behavior will point to an element in the administrative metadata where the offline location of the Delivery Master is located, once that element is in use.
