Abstract

Digital resources are widely used in our modern society. However, we are facing fundamental problems to maintain and preserve digital resources over time. Several standard methods for preserving digital resources have been developed and are in use. It is widely recognized that metadata is one of the most important components for digital archiving and preservation. There are many metadata standards for archiving and preservation of digital resources, where each standard has its own feature in accordance with its primary application. This means that each schema has to be appropriately selected and tailored in accordance with a particular application. And, in some cases, those schemas are combined in a larger frame work and container metadata such as the DCMI application framework and METS. There are many metadata standards for archives of digital resources. We used the following metadata standards in this study for the feature analysis me metadata standards - AGLS Metadata which is defined to improve search of both digital resources and non-digital resources, ISAD(G) which is a commonly used standard for archives, EAD which is well used for digital archives, OAIS which defines a metadata framework for preserving digital objects, and PREMIS which is designed primarily for preservation of digital resources. In addition, we extracted attributes from the decision tree defined for digital preservation process by Digital Preservation Coalition (DPC) and compared the set of attributes with these metadata standards. This paper shows the features of these metadata standards obtained through the feature analysis based on the records lifecycle model. The features are shown in a single frame work which makes it easy to relate the tasks in the lifecycle to metadata elements of these standards. As a result of the detailed analysis of the metadata elements, we clarified the features of the standards from the viewpoint of relationships between the elements and the lifecycle stages. Mapping between metadata schemas is often required in the long-term preservation process because different schemes are used in the records lifecycle. Therefore, it is crucial to build a unified framework to enhance interoperability of these schemes. This study presents a basis for the interoperability of different metadata schemas used in digital archiving and preservation.

본 연구는 다양한 기록관리 환경에서 기록의 진본성을 확보하고 기록의 생애 주기 동안 기록을 진본인 상태로 유지할 수 있는 진본성 온톨로지 모델을 제안하고자 한다. IntePARES 3 프로젝트의 연구내용을 바탕으로 구축한 진본성 기록 메타데이터인 IPAM(InterPARES Authenticity Metadata) 참조모델의 특징을 분석해보고, IPAM 모델을 적용하여 온톨로지를 구축하고 기록물 사례를 통해 적용 가능한 전자기록물 진본성 온톨로지 모델을 제안하고자 한다. 제안한 온톨로지 모델링은 IPAM이 제시하는 기록물의 생애주기에 생산되는 다양한 메타데이터 정보의 입력 및 관리를 가능하게 하는 도구를 개발하는 데 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

Abstract

The study aims to present authenticity ontology required for capturing information about digital record’s identity and integrity over the course of the lifecycle. To this end, we analyzed the functional requirements, domain model, and sample properties of the IPAM (InterPARES Authenticity Metadata), Based on IPAM, we proposed an ontology for authenticity of digital records with sample records. The suggested ontology modeling can be utilized as the basis for establishing an authenticity information creation and management tool for digital records.
