local content in a Europeana cloud
Rob Davies,
MDR Partners, Project Manager
LoCloud is funded by the
European Commission's ICT Policy Support Programme
Let’s hope it doesn’t rain
• Build on success of Europeana Local and CARARE Best
Practice Networks (25-30% of content in Europeana).
– 4 million + new items.
• Make it easier for small/medium institutions to make
good quality metadata and content available to
Europeana;
• Explore and test the potential of cloud computing for
aggregation, enrichment and re-use, with a special focus
on geographic location.
• Bring together local history and heritage resources
which are currently unevenly represented in the
Europeana ‘ecosystem’,
• More coherent views of content relating to a given
locality;
Main goals
1. Scientific coordinator (National Archive, Norway) and a
project manager (MDR)
2. Strong group of technical partners, already important
contributors to development of Europeana, including AIT,
Athena RC, AVINET, IPCHS, NTUA and PSNC.
3. National and regional aggregation services or content
providers who will act as pilot implementers of the cloud
services; coordinate and disseminate at national level.
4. Partners with specific expertise in key aspects such as
vocabularies.
• All EU Member States represented (excluding Finland,
Luxembourg and Malta) plus Iceland, Norway, Serbia and
Turkey.
• Start date: 1 March 2013
Consortium etc
• ‘Default’ aggregation infrastructure in the cloud for smaller
content holders
– Build on MINT-MORE combination used in CARARE (EDM)
– Lightweight digital library
– Alternative ingestion paths
• Establish guidance, training and support facilities, built
around the LoCloud aggregation service.
• On line course
LoCloud: IaaS
• An enhanced aggregator service would incorporate
services that operate on the metadata (repository-
like services)
• Multi-step process
• Long lifecycle of metadata
• Need to preserve metadata
• Provide added-value from all the aggregated content
An enhanced aggregator
• Metadata editing (possibly collection-wide)
• Preservation services
• Rights management
• Enrichment services
• Spatial
• Thematic
• …
• Digital resources management (creation, cataloguing,
etc.)

Enrichment
• Provide cloud-based software services to enable more
discoverable and interoperable content;
– geolocation enrichment tools
– metadata enrichment (NLP – English + Spanish)
– multilingual vocabularies for local history
– historic place-names ‘gazetteer’
– Wikimedia and crowdsourcing
• Cloud-based testlab
• A step toward distributed digital curation?

LoCloud - Local content in a Europeana cloud

  • 1. local content in a Europeana cloud Rob Davies, MDR Partners, Project Manager LoCloud is funded by the European Commission's ICT Policy Support Programme
  • 2.
  • 3. Let’s hope it doesn’t rain
  • 4. • Build on success of Europeana Local and CARARE Best Practice Networks (25-30% of content in Europeana). – 4 million + new items. • Make it easier for small/medium institutions to make good quality metadata and content available to Europeana; • Explore and test the potential of cloud computing for aggregation, enrichment and re-use, with a special focus on geographic location. • Bring together local history and heritage resources which are currently unevenly represented in the Europeana ‘ecosystem’, • More coherent views of content relating to a given locality; Main goals
  • 5. 1. Scientific coordinator (National Archive, Norway) and a project manager (MDR) 2. Strong group of technical partners, already important contributors to development of Europeana, including AIT, Athena RC, AVINET, IPCHS, NTUA and PSNC. 3. National and regional aggregation services or content providers who will act as pilot implementers of the cloud services; coordinate and disseminate at national level. 4. Partners with specific expertise in key aspects such as vocabularies. • All EU Member States represented (excluding Finland, Luxembourg and Malta) plus Iceland, Norway, Serbia and Turkey. • Start date: 1 March 2013 Consortium etc
  • 6. • ‘Default’ aggregation infrastructure in the cloud for smaller content holders – Build on MINT-MORE combination used in CARARE (EDM) – Lightweight digital library – Alternative ingestion paths • Establish guidance, training and support facilities, built around the LoCloud aggregation service. • On line course LoCloud: IaaS
  • 7. • An enhanced aggregator service would incorporate services that operate on the metadata (repository- like services) • Multi-step process • Long lifecycle of metadata • Need to preserve metadata • Provide added-value from all the aggregated content An enhanced aggregator
  • 8. • Metadata editing (possibly collection-wide) • Preservation services • Rights management • Enrichment services • Spatial • Thematic • … • Digital resources management (creation, cataloguing, etc.) Aggregator Services
  • 10. • Provide cloud-based software services to enable more discoverable and interoperable content; – geolocation enrichment tools – metadata enrichment (NLP – English + Spanish) – multilingual vocabularies for local history – historic place-names ‘gazetteer’ – Wikimedia and crowdsourcing • Cloud-based testlab • A step toward distributed digital curation? LoCloud: SaaS
  • 11.
  • 12. Workpackage structure Briefing, action planning in each country; state of the art in relevant cloud infrastructures; content and metadata analysis; requirements analysis WP 1 Planning, preparation and requirements Specify, modify, test, implement core infrastructure components: MINT, MoRe, Lightweight digital library – all build on existing work WP 2 Design and implementation of aggregation infrastructure Collaborative cloud-based testlab, involving partners and users; develop and implement a suite of SaaS: geolocation enrichment; metadata enrichment; multilingual vocabularies; historic place-names; Wikimedia and crowdsourcing WP 3 Micro services for small and medium institutions
  • 13. Workpackages (2) Regional training workshops, video, online course; documentation and help desk; support portal – centre of expertise; service sustainability planning with Europeana WP 4 Enabling and supporting small and medium institutions Group of inter-related evaluation activities: infrastructure, metadata and content; impact on institutions and end users; Recommendations WP 5 Evaluation and impact assessment Website and social media; national and international conferences and events; competition among Europe’s regions; sustainability planning; work with aggregators WP 6 Dissemination and exploitation Coordination with Europeana Cloud developments WP 7 Management and coordination
  • 14. • Move to cloud based architecture • No single point of failure • Scalability • High availability • API to access metadata & data • Build services • Allow content providers to create and catalogue their digital resources on the aggregator Future directions
