Towards Digital Archive Systems: Architecture and Design of Digital Museum Archive
In the information society, the volume of borndigital contents and digitized contents from original resources is rapidly increasing. Therefore various types of digital contents, such as text, images, movies and other data types, are stored into digital archive systems and key technolo gies are long-term preserving storage, database management system, information retrieval, web service and others. The one of major application programs is CMS (Contents Management Sys tem), some types of CMSs focus on specific functions in order to administrate digital contents and support a work flow in museums. In this paper, using several CMS softwares, we also develop a digital gallery of the Anthropological Museum of Nanzan University in order to organize vari ous collections with metadata and photographs. Firstly, we consider metadata attributes based on the guideline of museum objects, and we propose XML metadata formats like URI/RDF/MODS. Secondly, we design the metadata schema of museum collections, we also validate our proposed schema by using the MSXML parser. Thirdly, we construct the prototype archive system by using Joomla and the package of gallery and next we provide the annotation function in the system, which is based on Drupal and related modules. In the archive system, we have 173 digital contents with 74 metadata attribute values. At present, we are trying to implement the similar image search for 40,000 photographs stored in the system.
