Mapping Omeka S to DPLA

Jim Safley edited this page Nov 13, 2015 · 9 revisions

This document describes best practices for Hubs to aggregate resources from Omeka S Contributing Institutions, as defined in DPLA's Metadata Application Profile version 4.0.

Fields marked with "???" are inconclusive or up to the discretion of individual Hubs.

dpla:SourceResource

Omeka S items described by the default "Base Resource" resource template are compatible with dpla:SourceResource. We included the template to encourage users to describe their resources using a baseline of metadata standards. Even so, Hubs can aggregate any item so long as "Title" and "Rights" (the required properties) can be derived.

edm:WebResource

Omeka S media are attached to items and are compatible with edm:WebResource. Although Omeka S allows individual media to be richly described, DPLA does not provide mapping between web resources and edm:WebResource beyond the below properties.

Label o:media edm:WebResource
File Format o:media_type dc:format
Rights dcterms:rights dc:rights
Standardized Rights Statement ??? edm:rights

ore:Aggregation

Aggregations are contextual and therefore mappings are largely up to the discretion of individual Hubs.

Label Omeka S DPLA
Aggregated SR o:item edm:aggregatedCHO
Data Provider ??? edm:dataProvider
Digital Resource Original Record ??? dpla:originalRecord
Has View o:media edm:hasView

Standardized Rights Statement ??? edm:rights
