A lightning talk at Samvera Virtual Connect 2019 described thus and For the past several years the Fedora community has prioritized alignment with linked data best practices and modern web standards. We are now shifting our attention back to Fedora's digital preservation roots with a focus on the Oxford Common File Layout (OCFL). The OFCL is an application-independent approach to the storage of digital objects in a structured, transparent, and predictable manner. Fedora 6.0, the next major release, will replace the current ModeShape backend with a more scalable and performant implementation that persists data in accordance with the OCFL specification. This presentation will provide an overview of the Fedora 6.0 design, including an introduction to the OCFL and how it will be implemented. It will be of interest to Samvera community members who want to track Fedora developments and understand their impact on Samvera applications.

A lightning talk at Samvera Virtual Connect 2019 described thus and The Timeliner is a pedagogical tool that was available in the old Variations application, the Avalon predecessor. It allows for a visual representation of the structure of an audio file or fragment. The tool, which will be made available as a standalone, has been reimplemented using IIIF Presentation API v3 for the presentation layer and the IIIF Auth protocol for the integration with Avalon. We will show the tool and also discuss the technical aspects of the IIIF standards.

A lightning talk at Samvera Virtual Connect 2019 described thus and Avalon Media System is upgrading it's UI component for handling structural metadata editing for an audio or visual work. The user can select and organize timespans in an AV work by manually typing bounding times and titles, or by interacting with a visual representation of the waveform. Technologies used are Peak.js and ReactJS.

A lightning talk at Samvera Virtual Connect 2019 described thus and For metadata specialists, creating metadata profiles, system requirements, and accompanying documentation often feels like a game of whack-a-mole. Current practices and technologies also mean comparing your profiles with another institutions’ is an enormous hassle. To address this problem, developers and metadatists came together to create the machine-readable metadata modeling (M3) specification. This presentation will offer some history and use cases for the specification, an update on its current status, and where to learn more.

A lightning talk at Samvera Virtual Connect 2018 described thus and Avalon Media System is working towards a release to integrate with Hyrax in support of time-based media formats. This includes creating a Work type to support the needs of audio and video formats and provide an upgrade path for those who have been using Avalon in it’s previous releases as a standalone Samvera product. Join us for a look at the new Audiovisual Work type, specifically how we’re transitioning descriptive metadata from MODS XML to RDF.
