ImageTEXT
ImageTEXT
is the Metadata entry/review Template that enforces data entry
standards. These may be the standards for
Captioning and Keywording set by a Photo Agency, or of Heritage
Archiving by a Museum. The basic IPTC standard fields are the
default structure, other configurations may be developed to order.
Nine Preview mode is available, this example shows single Preview of file being archived. ImageTEXT's features are detailed below.
Data entry is enforced with the help of vertical bars, at the side of each field, that change color according to the level of data entered.
Standards enforced are:
Boxes above each field display:
Data entered over the limit causes the GREEN bar to turn ORANGE, and produces a warning message. If the data limit is exceeded, the overlimit data is automatically truncated. Images being archived may be viewed individually or in groups of nine. Templating allows rapid data entry for similars. Because the data isn't imported into the Image File until later processing through ImageVISA, archiving of similars with identical data may take only seconds following full data entry for the first file. When all files to be archived pass the ImageTEXT standards (all bars green), the program is closed, and ImageVISA is run on the files. ImageVISA processes all the files according to the Agency's standards and imports ImageTEXT's data. Output files are to the Agency's Image File and Metadata standards. Coding only added to passing files signals the receiving Agency that the submitted files have been processed through VISA and TEXT. Files without ALL fields GREEN will not be processed, and their failure reported. ImageTEXT is used with ImageVISA, and is not sold separately. |
