About this Event
The IIIF Consortium and the The National Film and Sound Archive are organizing a series of IIIF events alongside the AI4LAM Fantastic Futures conference. There will be a IIIF showcase held on the 15th of October and two hands-on workshops for Fantastic Futures attendees on the 16th of October.
IIIF is a set of open standards for delivering high-quality, attributed digital objects online at scale. It’s also an international community developing and implementing the IIIF APIs. IIIF is backed by a consortium of leading cultural institutions. To find out more please visit the IIIF Website.
Please use this site to register for the two hands-on workshops:
Hands on with IIIF
9:00am - 12:00pm
This session will introduce you to the IIIF Image and Presentation standards and go through some hands on exercises to show how you can create and use off the shelf tools to get started with these standards. We will discuss how to setup a IIIF system in production starting with a small collection and then how to scale up to millions of images. We will then conclude with a discussion on the wider IIIF community and where you can go for help and advice after the workshop has completed.
Attendees should leave the session with a good understanding of the different IIIF standards and what choices need to be looked at when setting up a IIIF system in their own institution.
No prior knowledge of IIIF is required and the core sessions should be easily accessible to those with confidence using the Web.
Glycerine users
2:00pm - 4:00pm
This session will introduce Glycerine, a workbench for image annotation. Annotations can combine semantic tags from domain specific vocabularies with critical analysis references. Researchers can collaborate across institutional repositories and publish the annotated images as research outputs.
We will go through hands-on exercises to create your own collection of images, create annotations, and publish them. In the second hour we will break out into research and implementation streams. Researchers can discuss collection building and annotation methods; digital professionals can explore API access and integration of Glycerine workflows and viewer. Attendees should leave the session with all the competencies to build and publish annotated image collections and a good understanding of the possibilities for integration of Glycerine at their own institution.
No prior knowledge is required, and the session should be easily accessible to those with confidence using the Web.
