WMS Democratizing Data
WMS What is it?
  • Tool for ingesting digital objects and metadata
  • User centered Administrator and team member
    views
  • Enables community repository development
  • distributed participationanyone with web access
  • Enables standardization and customization

WMS Democratizing Data
WMS What is it?
  • Supports Preservation perpetual access
  • Data model provides management and access
    to object throughout its lifecycle
  • Analog ----? Digital--??? standard support
  • Flexibility for the future
  • agnostic to schemas, object formats,

And the ways people look for and use information

WMS Democratizing Data
How the Data Model Works
  • Event based When an object interacts with an
    agent or place at a specific point in time, an
    event occurs in the lifecycle of the object.
  • Event Professor visits Italy and takes digital
    photographs. Cataloger creates metadata for
    digitized images. Researcher locates images,
    uses them for book and lecture.

WMS Democratizing Data
Best Practices for Data Models
  • Easy to understand and interpret by both
    information managers and users
  • Context independent
  • Should be a representation of living data
  • Supports management and preservation of data

METS Preservation Support
  • Preservation Metadata
  • Stores information that supports preservation
    decisions/actions
  • Documents preservation processes, such as data
    migrations
  • DigiProv
  • Specifies the changes an object/file has
    undergone since its digital birth.

WMS Democratizing Data
Some Design Issues
  • A digital object and metadata tool for Fedora or
    other digital repository systems
  • Handles digital object upload and creation
  • Handles metadata manipulation (create, import,
    export, convert between schemas)
  • Scalable, flexible and expandable
  • Easy to use

WMS Democratizing Data
Some Design Decisions
  • Database driven
  • XML - data model and data carrier
  • Modularization of functionality components
  • Object oriented application design
  • Context driven data entry interface
  • PHP/MySQL

What is Usability?
  • Software may be bug-free yet still be unusable
  • 2 ways the GUI obstructs users
  • 1. Sets Incorrect Expectations
  • 2. Sets Ambiguous Expectations

WMS Democratizing Data
Designing for Usability
  • GUI design is a process
  • Some hand-holding is needed in complex systems
  • Read The Fabulous Manual
