IMM Core Ontology 2.06.07.2008 1.0 The IMM version 2 Core Ontology Annotations describe information about the MediaItem derived class and use Anchors to point to specific markers or time codes in the asset. Custom annotation predicates are supported on the Annotation class, as well as all of the inherited Dublin Core predicates from the Item class. Annotation Annotations contain predicates that describe a specific timepoint or marker in an Item derived class. 1 1 1 1 A collection of Annotation instanances for this Asset. Annotations can be comments, Digital Ink, MPEG7 annotaions, or other custom annotation derived objects. Annotation Collection The Aspect Ratio of the video file as a decimal value; for example 1.33 for a 4:3 aspect Aspect Ratio The Aspect Ratio of the Image or VideoItem AudioFormat is used to store predicates to describe the technical details about the format or encooding of the audio. This can be details about the digital, or physical representation. AudioFormat is attached to a Resource class on a MediaItem. AudioFormat 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 The AudioEssenceFormat stores predicates about the technical format of either the digital or physical representation. 1 Points to an IMM AudioEssenceFormat instance AudioFormat AudioItem is used to describe an audio only asset. This can be a sound file, track, or other audio resource. The item could point to either a digital or physical resource. AudioItems point to AudioFormat definitions that describe the technical details of the AudioItem AudioItem The AudioItem class points to descriptors for an audio only asset. The bit depth of the Image or VideoItem Bit Depth The Bit Depth of the asset Combined average Bit Rate for the audio and video in the file Average Bitrate The combined average bitrate of the file Closed Captioning Language Caption Language A category tag used to define a unique category for the MediaItem. Recommended best practice is to provide a closed vocabulary of Category codes to pick from. Category 1, 2, 5.1, 7.1 Audio Channel The duration in seconds of the asset. This value is an xsd:decimal and is equivalent to the absolute time value used in the IMM SDK TimeCode structure. Duration Seconds String that contains a definition for the audio, video or image codec. Codec The SMPTE 12M time code format of the Video Format. Framerates supported are those used by the IMM SDK TimeCode class: 23.98 IVTC Film Sync, 24fps Film Sync, 25fps PAL, 29.97 drop frame, 29.97 Non drop, and 30fps. Time Code Format Smpte2398 Smpte30 Nanoseconds FeetAndFrames35mm 27MhzTicks AbsoluteFrames Seconds FeetAndFrames16mm Smpte2997NonDrop Smpte2997Drop Smpte25 Smpte24 The IMM hasVersion property is points to a VersionedObject that holds version information. Has Version Provides technical details about an image file's formatting. IPTC and EXIF ontology predicates can be used here to define specific details about the ImageFormat. ImageFormat 1 1 1 The ImageEssenceFormat holds predicates that describe the technical details about an Image. 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 Points to an IMM ImageEssenceFormat instance Image Format An ImageItem is used to define an image that is stored in the IMM Media Library. Use the XMP defined Schema Predicates for the ImageItem. For example IPTC4XMP, EXIF, and Photoshop schemas are recommended. ImageItem The ImageItem class is used to describe an Image asset Anamorphic flag Anamorphic Closed Captioning Flag. Used to denote that closed captioning is contained either within this asset or in a side reference. Captioned Flag indicating whether the content is DRM’ protected. DRM protected Is the file originally from Tape source From Tape The Sharepoint List identifier (GUID) SharePoint List ID The name of the Marker. Markers are used to denote points of interest within the Video or Audio file for use in Silverlight or Windows Media Player web controls. Marker Name The Type of the Marker. This can be user defined, or part of a controlled vocabulary. Markers are used to denote points of interest within the Video or Audio file for use in Silverlight or Windows Media Player web controls. Marker Type MediaItem is the base class for all media asset types in the IMM ontology and the IMM Media Library. Predicates defined on MediaItem will be visible to all sub classes that derive from MediaItem. Use this class to store the most common global predicates used across the Media Library that are not format specific. MediaItem The MediaItem is the base class for all media types in the IMM ontology. The last user to modify predicates on the Object Modified By This should be stored as a string in the Active Directory username format. For example: REDMOND\immuser All classes in IMM must derrive from Object. Object defines the base predicates required in the IMM solution. New classes that are not of type Item or type Container must derive directly from Object. Object 1 1 The Object class defines the base type and predicates for all class definitions in the IMM Ontology. 1 1 In IMM this is stored as the user's Active Directory account name such as REDMOND\immuser The Poster Frame points to a Thumbnail Item that is the visual representation of the Item or Container in the Media Library Web Part or other cusomized Web Parts. If a Poster Frame reference is defined. The Thumbnail Class should also be listed in the imm:ItemCollection Poster Frame Short description for the MediaItem Reduced description Short Title for the Item Reduced Title Resolution-X in pixels Width Resolution-Y in pixels Height Sampling Rate in Hz Sampling Rate The size in bytes on disk of the Resource Size (bytes) Start time in seconds as a decimal. This can be used to store the location of a thumbnail within a clip, the temporal location of an Anchor, or the original tape source start time code. This value is equivalent to absoluteTime in the IMM SDK TimeCode structure. Start Seconds Sub title language Subtitle Language Thumbnail is used to point to a representative image attached to a MediaItem to be used as a display in the Media Library. Thumbnail The Thumbnail class points to a small image proxy representation of a MediaItem. Thumbnail Collection Collection of Thumbnail images for this asset The VideoFormat class is used to attach technical parameter data about a VideoItem. Every Resource on a VideoItem should contain only one VideoFormat that describes the essence of the physical or digital Resource. Custom predicates from the SMPTE metadata, MXF, or other ontologies are supported under the VideoFormat class. Video Format 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 The VideoEssenceFormat class stores technical properties about the video Resource 1 1 1 1 1 1 Points to an IMM VideoEssenceFormat instance. Video Format The VideoItem class is used to create an instance of a video asset in the Media Library. It is also used to derive specialized class definitions for use in the Media Library such as; Proxy, Preview, and Trailer. VideoItem The VideoItem is the base class for all media assets of type video. Workflow class used to track information about a running workflow, or executed workflow on an Item class. Workflow 1 1 1 1 1 The Workflow class is used to track information about executed workflows on an class that derives from imm:Object. The Workflow class is stored as an instance in the imm:WorkflowCollection predicate attached to any item that derives from did:Item A collection of Workflow instances. Used to track the executed workflows on an Item Worfklow Collection The identifier (GUID) of the SharePoint Workflow Instance SharePoint Workflow Instance ID A message used to provide details about the workflow status Workflow Message The percentage complete (0-100) value of the workflow. Workflow Progress A generic status property for use in tracking IMM workflow status in MOSS Workflow Status As defined in clause 4.1 of ISO/IEC 21000-3 (MPEG21 DII).See Annex A of ISO/IEC 21000-3 for Requirements for the Registration Authority for Digital Item Identification Systems.This should be in the form of a URN, for example "guid:_" or urn:isbn or ISAN number, etc... Identifier This is a descriptor of the type of the Digital Item Identifier to be used. There is no strict definition in ISO/IEC 21000-3 on what this predicate should contain. By default in IMM it is assumed that all dii:Identifiers are of type GUID and will begin with "guid:_" followed by a valid GUID. Identifier Type An Anchor is used to bind predicates to a time code or marker in a VideoItem. Anchors can also be used to bind custom user defined predicates or objects to specifc time points in a VideoItem. Anchor 1 1 1 An Anchor binds predicates to a fragment, which corresponds to a specific time in a resource. 1 1 A pointer to an Anchor instance in an Annotation Anchor A container is a structure that allows items and/or containers to be grouped. A Container itself is not an Item; containers are grouping of items and/or containers. Containers can be used to describe Folders, Albums, Projects, Series, Seasons, etc... Custom Containers can be created to support the grouping of custom objects or derrived Item types for use in the IMM framework. see ISO/IEC 21000-2:2005 Container 1 1 1 A container is a structure that allows items and/or containers to be grouped. A pointer to an instance of a Container. Multiple hasContainer predicates can exist on a Container derived class. Container specifies the content-encoding as defined in IETF RFC 2616. For example, if the content is ZIP encoded it should be indicated here. This property is not used to store a video or audio files codec information. For codec details see the VideoEssenceFormat, AudioEssenceFormat, and ImageEssenceFormat classes. Specifies the format used to include the Resource or Annotation by value in the value predicate. This does not relate to the actual content encoding. For example, if the content-encoding is ZIP, and then the binary data is stored in the value predicate as base64 encoded, the value of the encoding predicate would be base64. Likewise for XAML conten the value of encoding predicate would be xaml. This property should not be used to store a video or audio files codec information. For codec details see the VideoEssenceFormat, AudioEssenceFormat, and ImageEssenceFormat classes. Encoding Xml Unicode Binary Base64 Xaml see ISO/IEC 21000-2:2005 An Item is a grouping of sub-items and/or components that are bound to relevant predicates. An Item can contain multiple hasItem predicates that can point to anything that derrives from the class Item. In addition all derived types of Item inherit the base properites of Item, including the Dublin Core, and base Digital Item Identifier (DII) predicates. Item 1 1 1 1 1 Item is a representation of an asset or non-container type object in IMM. All items that can point to other items must derive from the Item class. 1 1 A generic collection that holds references to instances of objects derived by Item. Multiple ItemCollection predicates can exist on any class that derives from Item. Item The Mime Type of the Resource if it is in digital format. Mime Type The addressable URL of the on disk location of the asset or annotation. This property is used to store full UNC file path or the SAN/NAS Root relative filepath for access to the actual file on disk. Ref A Resource is an individually identifiable physical or file based asset on disk such as a video or audio clip, an image, or a textual asset. A resource may also potentially be a physical object such as a tape. All resources shall be locatable via an unambiguous address stored in the Ref predicate. Resources can also be stored "inline" by setting the did:Value and the did:Encoding predicates. Resource 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 A Resource points to the digital or physical representaiton of an Asset, and the associated predicates around that resource. 1 1 1 1 A pointer to an instance of a Resource. Item derived classes can contain only one Resource. Resource This is where you would store the actual encoded value of the Resource or Annotation if you want it “inline”. If there is a value predicate, there should not be a ref predicate and vis-versa. If the value is encoded (base64 or xml) that should be indicated in the encoding predicate Used to support keyword Tagging of assets. Can be used to support Tag cloud web parts or other keyword Tagging schemes. Multiple Tags can exist on an asset. Keyword Tag The original filename at the time of import. The filename could be changed in the import workflow, so this field is used to store the originating filename. Original Filename RCE Project Stores all of the Project information and the tracks for a Rough Cut Editor Project 1 1 1 Classes and Properties required by the IMM Rough Cut Editor Web Part IMM Rough Cut Editor Ontology 1.01.24.2008 An instance of a Transition effect Transition 1 1 Title Template for use in the IMM Rough Cut Editor Title Template Text Block 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 Title 1 Track 1 1 1 An instance of a clip on a track.
